RIDE Corner2Corner
Journey with us as we bike from corner to corner, coast to coast, Bellingham to Key West.
Travel. Bicycles.
Doing Good in the World.
It’s a bucket list item for sure…our idea of bicycle touring quickly morphed into an epic journey to ride our bikes from Bellingham to the farthest point away in the continental US ...and raise money for charity. And so it began – the mapping of our “Ride C2C” journey. Self-supported, self-guided.
Since we can’t just take 4 months off, we had to plan this trip in “4-week legs” – we ride as far as we get in 4 weeks and then, the following summer, start at that point to begin the next leg, until we finally dip our tires into the Atlantic ocean.

OUR JOURNEY
Leg #1 BEGAN JUNE 18, 2017 and is COMPLETED. Bellingham, WA to Great Falls, MT
Read our journal and see pictures here.
LEG #2 started July 28, 2019 – COMPLETED. Jackson, WY to Rapid City, SD
Read our journal and see pictures here.
We were delayed. A year. We made the route plans and were ready to roll summer of 2018 but our construction at the Bellingham Training & Tennis Club dealt us different cards. All is Good!
Summer of 2019 has come and we were ready to pedal. Our layout of this leg is below:
- Beginning in Jackson, WY in the Grand Tetons
- Riding through Yellowstone National Park
- Continuing east over the Bighorn Mountains with a summit pass of 9,666 feet
- Still heading west across Wyoming's great basins
- An amazing experience at Devil’s Tower (NE Wyoming)
- Into South Dakota and through the Black Hills National Park and Michelson Trail
- A day loop ride to visit with Crazy Horse and our presidents at Mt. Rushmore
- ….to finish at Rapid City, South Dakota
LEG #3…begins June 25, 2021. Sioux City, IA to ... St. Louis, MO or Nashville, TN???
This year we will pack up our bikes and ship them to Sioux City (we will fly) to start leg #3. We plan on following the "Lewis & Clark" Adventure Cycling Bike route south from Sioux City along the Missouri River, then across Missouri, connecting to the "Great Rivers South" route along the Mississippi and either ending in St. Louis or riding on to Nashville - depending on time and energy.
Sign up for our trip email list and you'll be notified every time we post pictures and stories about our adventures on the road. And if you like our entertainment, please support us by making a donation to one of the three organizations, below.
This epic journey deserved an epic goal: to raise $10,000 to help others.
If you like what we are doing, are glad you won’t be riding a bike for four weeks, want to live vicariously through our travels, or simply think we are crazy for doing this, I hope you’ll donate to one of our three organizations in whose work we strongly believe. - Robin & Doug
