Keith, good to hear from you and thanks for the kind words
1 month agoGood for you! It’s not a small thing to pick up the voyage again after what you’ve been through. I admire your dedication!
1 month agoDave- I'm glad to read this upbeat news. You're clearly determined to "git 'er done"; kudos to you for doing the work needed to get back on the horse.
1 month agoThanks for your words of encouragement. It has been a tough 9 months but I am feeling strong
1 month agoThat is fantastic news! I will be following along and rooting for you. You have ridden the most challenging physiographic part already, but there are still many challenges and adventures ahead on your journey. Your perseverance is an inspiration for us all - I hope to emulate it later in my own way. I'm envious of your upcoming adventure and wish you the best of luck.
1 month agoWhat cyclists fear the most, dog bastard dogs. Speedy Recovery.
1 month agoUnfortunately the person was a renter, very poor, and it is nearly impossible to get money out of the owner of the house
1 month agoI am pleased to hear that you are recovering with a good exercise programme.
Did you send your medical bills to the dog owner?
Thank you for the progress report - and kudos for all the hard work you've put in to get back on the bike. I look forward to continued updates and the resumption of your tour.
1 month agoI'm so sorry! This must be so incredibly frustrating! I hope you make a full recovery and get back to doing what you love!
10 months agoSo sorry to read about your accident. If you need anything at all I would be glad to help. Don't hesitate to contact me, I am retired and have plenty of time. I am about 45 minutes from Lexington near Harrodsburg.
10 months agoDave, we are so to hear this. We have been following your adventure and enjoying it immensely. You must be very disappointed to say the least. Hope to see you soon in the neighborhood.
10 months agoDamn it! We were all watching with interest and a little envy mixed in. I wouldn’t have guessed that this kind of obstacle would have been the main one. I too have woken up in ICU after some event while riding home. Shoot. Will see if they will let me send Bourbon.
10 months agoDave, we’re thinking about you, sending prayers and good vibes! 🙏 I was relieved to read your eloquent and moving last entry after hearing about your crash - this amateur doctor diagnosed no concussion as evidenced by your articulate words. 🤕. We’re in you’re corner Dave and Beth! Let us know if there is anything we can do during this difficult time. ❤️

Rich,
1 month agoJust read through a few of your journals and your tandem rides with Robin are a delight. I have met two tandem riders on my journeys. One was on the GAP trail in Pennsylvania. The couple had ridden from the Olympic peninsula in Washington across the country and had planned on going to DC then heading south to Miami. The second couple I met within the two weeks last summer where I attempted to cross the country. I kept in touch with them and they made it to Astoria, OR in August. Keep riding and enjoying yourselves
