Distance: 48 avg: 12? Well WordPress for IPhone ate my post again, so yet another big “fuck you” from the app. But what can I do about it? I’ll tell you what i can do: it’s open source, so I’ll fix it and charge for my fixed version. 😛 Since I don’t feel like re-writing…

Back in Wichita I had to get some work as a mall cop. I grew this mustache for the job interview. Oh, and I got the Supercuts ‘supercut’.

Distance: 62 avg: 12.2 Missouri is pretty exciting so far! I’ve been enjoying the hills, which are very dramatic. And not to be outdone by yesterday’s weather, nature kicked it up a notch. After a hot, sweaty ride, nothing feels as good as being doused in big cold drops of rain. I could have put…

Distance: 68 avg: 12.7 There are certain questions I thought I’d have to answer on this trip. And then there are questions I didn’t think about at all. Questions such as: Can I survive a night in a tent with 60mph winds? What is the best way to fend off a Rottweiler? How do you…

Distance: 58 to Toronto avg: don’t know Distance: 67 to Walnut avg: 11.9 The heat is almost unbearable. I must have drank 2 gallons of water today. I went to sleep last night and stripped down to my boxers. I was still sweating so I went starkers. A couple cars passed by my campsite, so…

Distance: 62 avg: 13.7 Why hello. It feels like it’s been a while! I’ve been relaxing with my lovely woman in wichita. We did a whole lot of nothing. The new Star Trek movie is awesome. So today I replaced my worn tires and seats, they were thrashed. The weather today was extremely humid. I…

Distance: 50 avg: 14.7 The weather is humid, and it’s probably going to rain any second. But it’s kind of nice outside, and I get to enjoy the lightning bugs! :O Today had very little riding and lots of little conversations with people! So much so that I didn’t get on the road until 11!…

Distance: 58 avg: 11.8 One of my favorite food personalities is Alton Brown. He has an engineer’s perspective on cooking which I admire. That isn’t to say that love isn’t a necessary ingredient in cooking. It’s just that most chef’s don’t talk enough about the difference between say chuck and round steak, or that if…

Today I don’t have much to say. Hung out in a coffee shop, worked on Mustaches. I got a hotel. Serenity was on the scifi channel and it’s still awesome. Shiny. 🙂

Distance: 57 avg: 13.1 This morning things started getting uncomfortable for me with Dan and Elaine. They have such intense ideologies, and kept pushing at me. What’s worse is that I slept horribly. I had told them I might stay another day. It turned out that they had planned a day for me. Dan wanted…
