I keep thinking about a nice bike tour. Can’t do a Washington to Maine ride yet, but a nice mellow tour would be fine. Maybe a ride down to Monterey. Probably when the spring hits.

A nice video about biking to Seattle. Sleepless Til’ Seattle.

I know it is just me, but I don’t understand how people who can retire continue working. Yeah I’ve heard people say that they wouldn’t have nothing to do. How sad that people built their whole life around a job. Shoot go volunteer or see the world. I look forward to retirement because my time becomes my time. As long as I work the employer is dictating my time. I’m told when to come to work and when to leave. When I go on vacation I’m told when I can leave and when to come back.

Interesting never would have thought of this. Traveling across country on a Brompton folding bike. Laura Crawford and Russ Roca actually does this. But they also use trains and buses when needed. Their website is interesting and informative too. Path Less Pedaled. http://www.pathlesspedaled.com/
