    Hmm, I'm starting to think you are just doing this ride in order to eat junk food.

How to Read About My Trip - (all the posts in one place)

In the time that's passed since my little "adventure", there have been a number of people that didn't know about my ride and have wanted to see pictures and read about it.  Frankly, it's amazing to me.

When I stopped in Palmyra, the ladies at the store told me about a guy that rode through this morning.  I met him later in the morning at another gas station where we had both stopped to get supplies.  His name was Dan Miner and he was racing the TransAm. Apparently he the last time he slept was Friday night and he started this leg of the trip Saturday at 4:30am, rode through the day and overnight, and was riding through Sunday hoping to make it to Yorktown by the end of the day. He left the gas station before me, but I caught up to him a little...
