Leachman is a retired school district superintendent and university instructor
and author of One Ride at a Time: Life Lessons Learned on a Cross-Country
Bicycle Ride. An educator, author, and occasional adventurer, Rob and his

across Missouri on the “Katy Trail” and a rim-to-rim hike across the Grand
Canyon, before riding their bicycles across the United States. Rob earned a

Kansas City, Missouri. He currently writes about areas of lifelong interest to
him, including the history of track and field, leadership and goal setting, and
