Title: Ugh, so it begins...again...
Post by: Pale Dim on March 30, 2010, 09:55:24 PM
Well, apparently our mission from my 2007 Bike trip wasn't accomplished, so I'll yet again be going...across the country...again, during the summer. This time, we'll be going straight across the middle of the U.S., which means Rocky Mountains...flat terrain of Kansas...the Continental divide (yet again)...whee. I think my mother is just looking for ways to get me out of the house, even though I haven't even graduated yet...

That sounds very awful. I hope you at least have the slightest bit of fun.

Do you really need to do this? Surely, if you don't want to do this, there could be another way to spend time--something enjoyable.

Aside from all the negative things, it might actually be a fun time. I mean, I had fun back in the 2007 trip, right? The only bad climbs were in South Dakota and Pennsylvannia (no surprise there...), and besides, no matter how it ends, this will be my last trip with the group, so I can get this over with and live my life. Besides, the odds of this coming up again are VERY slim (at least, with our finances), so I'll take the chance to go across the U.S. one more time while I still can. And hey, I know the guys. If things get too bad (Like South Dakota every other day...), we'll get a lift from the support vehicles.

If I could cross the Continental Divide, climb Mt. Rushmore, and come out of Yellowstone in one piece, surely I can do it again (once I get back into shape)!

Hopefully, it's not too painful. :P

I wish you luck, man.

If bugs fly into your mouth, eat them; they'll be a good source of protien.

I actually swallowed a bug (as much as choking allows) while riding my bike not that long ago. I think it was last week. :P

Was there something else bugs were for?

They also make programming heck.

Did you encounter bugs that often on your travels?
