RAAM...are you serious?

So here I was sitting at a Christmas party, and a friend tells me he is organizing an 8-man RAAM team for this June. After about 10 minutes of chatting - he asks me if I'm interested in joining the group. My brain is swimming....biking across the US is on my "must do" list before I depart to the other side!

But racing across the country is another thing. 3,000 miles as fast as we can go? Non-stop...24/7 biking by a group of middle-aged weekend warriors?

Can I get off of work? What about the cost? Will I need a new bike? How will I do with minimal sleep? Can I get trained in 6 months?

So many questions...so little time.
