Overdue

I'm overdue to post a new entry, here it goes. The trip is seeming a little more real now, lots of details are getting taken care of. Quit the Athletic Club for the summer yesterday, and figured out where to put the cars while we're gone. The humble townhouse will be rented out for the trip, to a friend of Laura's that is managing the new spa at the Ritz Carlton hotel. Still trying to figure out how to pay bills and such from a bicycle seat. I have to figure out how to get the bike to Astoria, Oregon. Looks like a rented SUV is the answer, but it's not cheap, around $500. Laura bought a new camera, seems to like it so far, and it takes good videos, so we might get on Utube with a crash or something. I've got some ideas for tricks on Big Orange, so keep checking the blog!!!!! Next post will have pics, we are going to get all our stuff laid out check for size and weight, then show you all how we will exist on 15lbs of necessities.
