10 Questions with Fannie
Stephanie (a.k.a. Fannie) is my older, adventurous sister who has always inspired me to live life to the fullest. Stephanie has backpacked all throughout Europe, biked from Virginia to California, hiked the Appalachian trail, and biked through New Zealand… the list goes on. She is the one we turn to when we have any questions about our cycling tour. Here are 10 questions I thought would be helpful and fun to share.
