I stumbled upon your website, and I must admit that I’m more than intrigued about what you are doing. I am an English teacher in Houston, and a bit of a cyclist as well. How were you inspired to do this? Have you had any problems with repairs or replacement parts? Is your funding totally through donations? I have not read all of your commentary yet, so some of these questions have probably been addressed in your posts. If so, please forgive me. I guess my intrigue with your project is a result of its simplicity. Ride a bike, commit to a journey, help people, explore and learn along the way. I’m drawn to your story in the same way I was drawn to Krakauer’s Christopher McCandless in his book Into the Wild. Keep doing what you’re doing. “May the wind be at your back.”

Give Allison and David a big hug and kiss for us!
