We are now officially bloggers. Neil is planning on a cross country bicycle trip (1/2 way) and we need to share with everyone. He and his friend Mel Bashore, are beginning the trip on Sept. 15 from Alexander, Kansas, halfway point. They are planning on taking 6 weeks and arriving at San Francisco, California. Originally it was to be across the entire country, but job demands changed the trip to half-way. Right now we are busy collecting equipment and supplies, in the very smallest size to put in the ole' "Bob", a travel trailer for Neils bike. The later start may require more cold weather gear. Everything needs to be as light and small as possible: every ounce adds to the load. The plan is to travel by bicycle, about 70 miles a day; preferably early morning. I will post pictures and action as it occurs.

Good job Beck on setting this up! Look at all the fun you're having in your retirement days. Hope all the prep is going well. We'll have to make it over there this week before blast off. Still can't believe he's doing it, but then again, it's Neil.
YAY! This is great...welcome to CYBER world. I think that this will be a fun adventure for Neil...he better pack heat
