10/09/2003 Entry: "Wow, it's really over."

So it looks like I'm not the only slacker in the bunch. :) The plan was that we all write our final entries within a week of our arrival. That's today. And we're still missing a bunch of entries. Oh well.

It's so hard to sum up this trip and say how much all the experiences met and getting to know the other guys that I road with. When you spend day and night for 2 1/2 months with people, you learn lots of things about them. I know that I will miss everyone's antics and behaviors, things that I have gotten used to and become comfortable with.

I haven't written an entry since I was sick. Since then I've kind of been the lazy one. The caboose. I was the one who got up late and took a long time to pack and usually was the last one into town every night. In other words, I turned into what my girlfriend Amy expected me to be for the entire trip. In some ways I wish that I had been with some of the other guys, but for many reasons I kind of enjoyed my solitude and being able to stop whenever I pleased and do whatever I wanted.

My last few days also included some adventures. On the day going from Dalton to Ware (Where?) I stopped at the Cummington Creamery. It was this neat little natural food/general store. While there I purchased a bottle of a local microbrew. Unfortunately I couldn't drink it there because there license wouldn't allow it so I had to climb up on a rock on the side of the road and drink it while watching traffic. But back to my point, hehe, as I'm getting ready to leave another cyclist I had passed earlier on a hill pulls in. He's kind of older and starts talking to me. Wants to look at what kind of gear I have and how I have it arranged. Well, I believe he did more than look, because a little while later I got a flat tire. I pulled the tire off and got the tube out ready to patch it. I reach for my pump and...no pump. Whether or not the old guy stole it, I don't know for sure, but somehow my pump disappeared.

Luckily for me, there was a nice woman named Star looking at a house across the street. She was driving a pickup truck. So I asked her for a ride to the nearest bike shop. But the shop a couple of miles down didn't have the tire I wanted, or the pump. I decided that since I'd had 3 flats in 2 days in my front it was time to replace the Panaracer that had taken me all the way from just before McKenzie Pass in Oregon. So she gave me a ride a few miles further down and somewhat out of her way to the Competitive Edge Bike and Ski shop just east of Northampton. Now, these people were VERY nice. They gave me a great deal on a new tire and pump...and even though it wasn't the exact pump I wanted (I'd become very attached to my old pump...we were good buddies), it's still a nice pump. They even put the new tire on for me for no charge. So I really want to thank all the nice people at Competitive Edge and Star. They helped me out of a bind.

I want to thank Jack in Ware (Where?). He was a great guy and one of the most giving people we met on the trip. I really enjoyed use of his shower and dryer. It's so great to meet nice people like that. The night we arrived in Ware I also met another nice guy. He was in his truck at a stoplight and I pulled up next to him and he asked where I was going. At this point, saying you're going to Boston isn't that impressive so we would always have to throw in that we started in Oregon. When I told him that he pulled over to the side of the road and we started chatting about the trip. He ended up making a donation which was very nice.

Later on the next day when I was headed to Sudbury (the town we stayed at south of Concord on the 14th, the night of the Blackout) I stopped at a gas station and started talking to a guy named Matt (I think) and he was nice enough to buy me a Gatorade. Again the kindness of all the people we ran into was just overwhelming. It was wonderful.

Other highlights of the last few days include:
-Seeing Mike ride on some kid's little mini-bike (this was one of those weird bikes that only had 6-inch wheels).
-Getting off of stupid highway 2, a 4 lane, really busy highway with hardly any shoulder that we had to ride on for a couple of miles.
-Going out to an Irish Pub called the Harp with John (our Shriner contact) and the rest of the roadshow crew (if you ever go to the Harp across from the Fleet Center get the vegetarian chili, it's delicious!)
-Mastering the Rubic's Cube thanks to Norm. Although I think I first solved it in Ilion, NY, I didn't get good at it until we were in Boston.
-Running into a family on the pier from Hudsonville, MI, right next door to the town where my girlfriend Amy lives.
-Drinking a beer while perched on a rock 20 feet up watching the traffic go by below me.

I have a couple of other people I want to thank also that I missed in the past. I believe the man's name was Jim, but he gave me a ride from the Hwy 275/Hwy 20 intersection to Orchard, NEbraska when I was stuck and my wheel was consistently breaking spokes. Then the next morning he gave me a ride further on down the road. This was after I had split off from the rest of the group. Also I met a guy named Gene at the post office in one of the small towns in Nebraska and then later that day a car pulls over ahead of me on a hill. It was Gene and he made a donation to our group funds and wrote a check to the Shriner's Childrens Hospitals. So thank you very much to Gene.

Wow. I don't know what else to say really. I will remember this summer forever...or at least until I die. It was a great adventure and now I have to rejoin the real world of school and my job and everything else that goes along with it. I wanted for it to end, but at the same time, I want to continue to do bike touring and meet more people and see more places. Maybe someday I will bike across Canada or the southern part of the United States. Until then, I'll try and keep myself out of trouble. So, So Long, and thanks for all the fish!

Hey Josh

Congratulations on making it and doing such a great thing this summer. I haven't written much (have had a difficult summer--your mom can fill you in), but we've followed the adventure. We got your postcard and that was great.

Good luck with school and you have to figure that if you could survive this trip, you can accomplish anything that you want to do.
