Colorado, here we come!

After months of planning, we are finally on our way to Colorado, USA! We have spent hours looking through maps, calculating road distances on google, booking camp sites online and making sure we have all the gear - all in preparation for our 1,000 km cycle across the USA!

We are two friends (Carrie on the left and Sandra  on the right) who started with a plan to take 3 months off work to cycle across the USA, following the 'TransAmerica' route. Work commitments and life in general meant that our trip was downscaled to a 2 week cycling trip, with both of us taking side trips afterwards.

I (Carrie) am travelling to Monument Valley and the Grand Canyon to hike the Rim to Rim trail and Sandra is off to hike the 'Tonto Trail' in the Grand Canyon.
