6-4-08 In Phoenix. Assembled bikes and went for a 50 mile ride in the desert heat (100°). Tomorrow we're off to Oceanside CA, to start our trip East.

Good luck and have a great trip! The Pedal to Preserve is tomorrow and the forecast is 95 degrees, so although you've got 100 deg, here it's a WET heat, ha!

Best of luck & have fun. That said, a slew of quotes:


“A journey is best measured in friends rather than miles” tim cahill

When you have completed 95 percent of your journey, you are only halfway there.” japanese proverb

Every day is a journey, and the journey itself is home.” Matsuo Basho

“A journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it.” john steinbeck

if thou art rich, thou'rt poor; For, like an ass whose back with ingots bows, Thou bear'st thy heavy riches but a journey, And death unloads thee. shakespeare

I haven't a clue as to how my story will end. But that's all right. When you set out on a journey and night covers the road, you don't conclude that the road has vanished. . . . And how else could we discover the stars? unknown

and applicable the destination:

“Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.” Ben Franklin

“mmmmmmm. donuts/beer/erotic cakes.” homer simpson
