You are my sunshine [large print] : a story of love, promises, and a really long bike ride / Sean Dietrich, Sean of the South.

Dietrich, Sean, 1982- (author.).

Summary:

"It was only a few years after the starry-eyed young couple got married when scary news threatened to take the wind out of their sails. But Sean Dietrich's wife, Jamie, wouldn't let it. She dared to hope for and plan for a great big adventure, and she made him promise to do it with her. For love and the promise of biscuits along the way, Sean - who was never an athlete of any kind - undertook the bike ride of a lifetime and lived to talk about it. In this true-life tale, master storyteller Sean Dietrich - also known as the beloved columnist and creator of the blog and podcast "Sean of the South" - shares their hilarious, touching, and sometimes terrifying story of the long bike ride to conquer The Great Allegheny Passage and the C&O Canal Towpath trail. As you laugh out loud through every hard-won mile and lose yourself in his signature poignancy, you'll experience a great adventure that, in the end, will remind you of what's most important in life, the value of keeping your promises, and the importance of connection in your most treasured relationships."-- Provided by publisher.
