Some of those boots still look pretty nice. I would have expected the weather to have taken a bigger toll on them.

2 years agoWow. Congratulations! I haven’t ridden this long a ride in a long time.
2 years agoThat DOES seem quite specific.
2 years agoUp over 2000 miles! Of course, with your extra minimum 10 miles on your days off, you actually hit it earlier!

That you can't go to heaven 'less you wash your feet
And that's all, I'll tell you that's all
'Cause you better have Jesus

The Pacific Northwest indeed has the highest concentration of Sasquatch sightings. However, they are a continent-wide phenomenon. Check out this map of sightings in the US and Canada:

Protections for Bigfoot vary. Skamania County, WA is a designated Sasquatch Refuge 🌲 But in TX it's always open season 😬

Congrats on finishing Texas!!!
2 years agoHi Brian!
Wow, we've been following your progress and I feel like I'm there turning the cranks with you on this trip!
Andrea asks where is the massage therapist and chiropractor for the trip? We don't hear stories of the hot tub soaking I'm sure that occurs after each day's ride.
Can you shoot a picture of your tent and set up? Love to see how it looks in the am.
What is the most interesting (live) animal you've seen?
Any flats so far?
Keep those wheels going! Its all downhill from Texas (I'm told).
Don and Andrea
I thought you would be in your birthday suit.

I know a couple of riders who have done the Bubba version of this trip. They raved about the food and the laundry service, among other things. How do you like the level of service/lodging/food for the price you paid?
I've enjoyed following along with you. I'd like to find a spring tour to ride. The southern tier seems to be 'the' spring ride, but I just can't get excited about it . . .
Wow . . . spectacular field of flowers!
