Touring The Country By Bike - My Route West To East
The Ride In Photos. What They're Saying ... :)
"These photo journals are WAY BETTER than the evening news! Almost like getting to go along. Neat!" -John Robinett
"I'm no expert on what it takes to bicycle across America. I know having money and
time (at the same time) is a key component, but after that, I'm not sure.
If I had advice to give, I'd say you must have drive. You've got to want it. It's got to be something
you want so badly that you're willing to take risks, look like a fool,
or seem 'irresponsible' to the so-called 'responsbile.'
Life's too short to sit on the sidelines. Your dreams won't fall in your lap,
and relying on other people to achieve your dreams is foolishness.
Sometimes you need to bust out and grab things by the throat to make it happen. Or maybe it's as subtle as
admitting your fears and asking someone for help." -Steve Garufi on Day 42 on this tour.
