Ride: A Continental Crossing in Search of Trout, Clear Water...and Self

"Ride" chronicles a 4,000-mile cross-country bicycle ride from Seattle to Savannah. With little preparation and planning, a young businessman simply jumped on his bike and started pedaling. His goal: to raise money for trout stream preservation. The only problem was that the longest bike ride he’d ever taken was twenty-five miles long. And he barely knew how to repair a flat tire. Packing a fly rod and waders in place of a tent, he traveled through some of the country’s most spectacular scenery, fished on some of its best waters, and met some of its most charming, "classic" personalities. And with long hours alone—with just the road and assorted creatures to keep him company—he got to meet one other important person…himself. Each day brought new insights into life, and each day he recorded a personal lesson, a daily sutra. Reading "Ride" you can’t help but feel good about this country, its resources, and its people…especially if you can just step back, slow down, and get things in perspective. In some way, each of us makes his or her own ride. Perhaps this one will help with yours.
