THE ROUTE...updated

On April 14, 2008, we dipped our rear wheels in the Atlantic Ocean in Virginia Beach, VA and headed west along the Blue Ridge Parkway to Asheville, NC. We rode south of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and there our plans derailed. Just before we crossed into Tennessee, Kellea got hit by a car. Though not badly hurt, Kellea's bruised ribs meant she wouldn't be able to bike for over a month. Our ride turned into a car journey, which is documented in the blog below. We tried to carry forward our original intentions of raising funds for two great groups and witnessing a different side of America.

Interviewed in Warrenton, North Carolina






RIDING FOR A CURE--Father and daughter team of Rafe and Kellea Miller, both of California, pictured above with Warrenton business owner Ernie Fleming, made a stop in the county seat Wednesday as they cycle their way across the country to raise money for Breast Cancer Action and the Lymphoma Foundation of America. They began their journey in Virginia Beach, Va., and have dedicated their ride in honor of close friend Bud Davis, who recently passed away. They will finish their ride in San Francisco.
