Transcontinental Dreams

Lately, I’ve been thinking that it might be nice to ride the bike across the country. Maybe it’s a desire to escape my preset surroundings, but still I wonder.

When my mom first suggested riding the 100 miles from Amarillo to Canadian that seemed like an impossibility. We did it though. Many times. Riding transcontinentally has the same feel.

We don’t see any of these people. I always thought this odd, because Amarillo is on a main East/West and North/South route. There is more interesting ground to ride through in the states north and the trees and hills south.

It’s not too feasible at the moment. The ride is three months and I have to fly to the start and from the finish. Bills still have to be paid for during those months. Finding a programming job in Amarillo can take 6 months all by itself.

Maybe later or maybe something will come up.
