Susie Smith from Florida

Touring a Submarine 

Susie, John and Russ

Susie is one of the most interesting women that I have met in many years.  She is a wealth of information and has had many life experiences and has traveled widely.  She is from Jacksonville, Florida and spent her career in accounting and nursing.  She is the first to help others and looks out for John, reminding him to take his daily meds.  They have become riding partners.  Susie got terrible saddle sores after the first week of riding and had to ride in the SAG for a couple of weeks.  After some bike seat adjustments, she is back in the saddle.  In the meantime, she spent a bundle on creams and potions to heal her sores.  Susie did the Trans-Am in 2008.  She decided to do the Northern Tier because it was a once in a lifetime opportunity.  On this ride she has sampled other forms of transportation: rode a horse, a tractor, ATV, motorcycle, speedboat, a lawnmower and a forklift.  She promises to visit us in Arizona and wants to ride to Bisbee because her maiden name is Bisbee.
