One year ago today, @_step_outside_ and I dipped our front tires in the Pacific Ocean, completing our 3,727.3 coast-to-coast ride on the TransAm. I knew that trip would change my life, but never fully knew how it would change me until after it was over.
What other bike tourists told me ended up being accurate- it took a good 7 or 8 months to not be sad it was over, and I knew the only remedy was to plan for another one. “For in life, you can be one that wishes to do, or one that does.”
Sun scorched the earth, cracking the clay beneath our bikes like delicate china. The pavement of the road radiated heat that could soft our tires. And if it weren’t for the rainiest year on record here in South Dakota, nearly nothing would be growing in the Badlands.
We followed the loop road for 30 miles, stopping intermittently to ogle at the crimson and tan striped buttes that jut out of the dusty earth. Bison roam the land their ancestors once inhabited in abundance before their near extinction in the late 1800’s. And though it’s eerily desolate the further you wander into the park, it seems that’s precisely where the real wonders of nature reveal themselves.
