T minus 21 days to brakes off

We are counting down to the beginning of our bike tour! Only 21 days left. Kicking off our month-long tour of Burkina will be a celebration on the night of September 5th in Po. We'll eat, drink, and make merry in honor of gender and development work in Burkina Faso, 50 years of Peace Corps work around the world, and, well, the fact we'll be living atop our bikes for the following month and 2,000 kilometers! After relishing our last ache-free night, we'll hit the 'ole bicycle trail early the next morning.

We'll be taking donations through the end of the bike tour--the end of September, that is. Simply click on the "Donate" tab at the top of our blog, and PayPal will guide you through the steps. It's easy! And even a small donation goes a very long way here--one person in village can easily eat for an entire week for 5 MIL ($10 USD)!

We're all training here for the tour (or aren't and will pay for it later--a[me]choo) and finishing up projects at site so that we can be gone for a month. Stay tuned for our upcoming adventures!
