I have come from Virginia, and am heading to seattle, leaving the transam around oxbow. Taking 2 days off in Colorado Springs (off route) with friends as it is snowing and raining outside. Been a pleasure reading your blog as I prepare for this next very cold leg of the journey. Hope to be done by June 17.<br /><br />Agree with your points at the end- I have a stove but have not used it once, and wish I could ditch the front rack/panniers.<br /><br />www.sebastiantransamerica.blogspot.com<br /><br />Thanks for leaving your blog up- read everything from Pueblo to finish.<br /><br />Sebastian WattSebastianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03152979190398378487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8012711183632795088.post-6886077275896071652010-04-04T14:43:11.398-05:002010-04-04T14:43:11.398-05:00Yo Andy, don&#39;t forget how helpful the indigenous rednecks can be. In 1976 as an independent rider I was trying to compress 3 rides into one day and, as I approached Lander KS at dusk headlights blinded me sending me into a ditch, and blew out the lower bearing gusset on my bike (a double century ride made feasible by giant tailwinds!!!) These guys (4th of July) found the only cat in town good with mollebdinum and fixed my bike! The town butchered a few beef and the cyclists ate like starved dogs. God bless America, eh?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8012711183632795088.post-46192793041653860112010-03-18T04:43:23.849-05:002010-03-18T04:43:23.849-05:00No probs.

I am leaving Yorktown on May 7, 2010 with 4 other cyclists to ride to Astoria, and found this all valuable information. -Phyllisdesigncountshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11734748632928105987noreply@blogger.com
