You should definitely go back and write the entire story. The Little Debbie tour?

Yup…. young and dumb, as the title states. Plus, we were invincible at the time.

Looks like another error of youth. No hands on handlebars, no helmet on head and rolling downhill.

Chickens are not flightless, Mark, they don't fly far but they can fly.

Hah! I thought I’d have posted my first big tour (the first one for which I kept a journal) here by now, but I’m just too busy!

Thanks, Jacquie! I've been working my way through your journals as well, although "working" isn't the best choice of words since I'm enjoying them so much. I suspect I'll be following in your footsteps (specifically, your routes) on a trip or two after I retire.

Interesting, I hadn't heard of it. I suspect I'd agree with your review, and will check it out.

I recently listened to the audiobook version of "To Shake the Sleeping Self" by Jedidiah Jenkins, son of Peter, who was influenced by his father's walk. He, though, rode a bicycle from Oregon to Patagonia. I found all the religion stuff annoying, but overall, not a bad book.

Wearing helmets in 1982? They were pretty new here in Vancouver in 1987, when I got my first. It was a Bell Tour Lite, and it wasn't light.
