Good stuff…..last year I completed large part of this route myself.
May have passed you on the road. Don’t forget to do the return trip after a successful year at school.
Cheers

I’m a biking fan and Northwestern alum, and just wanted to add that this looks like a great trip. Long distance biking requires a fair amount of planning and determination, happy to see that Nate and his father made this trip safely. Sounds like fun.

I hear Nate bikes up the roof of University Hall every day. He’s a man’s man.

Nate gets a lot of press. Is it warranted? Possibly.

Didn’t the Daily run this story early Fall Quarter? Kind of lame just repeating their stories, but it’s a cool story none-the-less.

How could he be a loser?! he’s superb! he’s got guts to do things that challenge him . I appreciate his effort!

I will so do this in my life someday, e.g. before graduation! haha.

Wow, that’s pretty intense.

Cool person (ironic name choice), how is this kid a loser? There are tons of people who bike longer distances than this kid did — and there are tons more who do even crazier things (i.e., climb mountains), just to see how far they can push themselves.

Sounds like a great idea. If I ever have some time off, maybe I’ll do it myself someday…
