response 50 of 88: Mark Unseen   Jul 30 14:25 UTC 2003

I too would like to have gone, but database madness and a looming 
personal deadline overruled.

gelinas, lhbunkie and I drove up and chatted with clees for a while, and
scott showed up just before we left.  Thanks Joe, for taking the initiative
- and thanks clees - it was good to finally meet you in person!

Thanks to those who drove all the way to frankemuth to honor me with 
such a great visit, even though it was short.
it was excellent and great.
Thanks for dinner, Scott!
You're great.

aruba's (digital) camera was used to take pictures.  mooncat was not in
Frankenmuth when I was, but she did show up a bit late to the BoD meeting.

I had a better shot, but it didn't come out so well.

(I'm mildly amused by the idea of going to Frankenmuth to visit a Dutchman
visiting America...though going to Holland (MI) would have been even better.)

I hadn't noticed that.

Well,
after a short trip through Canada, we have landed in new York.
Albion, to be precise.
A rundown little city with a lot of lost glory.
Niagara Falls were awesome!
We had a whole day of rain, there.
More wetness.

Yeah, it's been pretty wet in the eastern US lately.  Philly was hot & muggy,
with rain every day.

Hello all.
I think it would be appropriate to tell you I made it safely back to 
the Netherlands.
Time to recuperate from my foolish dive on a plastic sheet in the rain. 
I bruised five ribs and had to bike for four more days until the final 
stage. I made it, still.
Tiry dipping in the Atlantic!

Congratulations!  Take a bow.

That was really quite an accomplishment. What will you do to top it?

Way to go on the continent crossing, Rick.  Did you achieve
the other goals you had for the trip?
clees
response 72 of 88: Mark Unseen   Aug 24 14:49 UTC 2003

heh heh, there you got me.
No future american wife for me, ha ha ha.
No green card.
Seems I have been barking up the wrong tree all the time, given what 
some fellow female cyclist said to me in our final fiteen minutes 
together.
Mayhap a Hawaii address to stay though, which isn't bad at all.

I guess you don't know what cycling does to a man's libido...
particularly when it takes place on a daily basis for nine weeks?

Besides, with so many people at each other's lips, I guess no.
That was not my aim.
Cycling coast to coast was. 4,200 miles, and I did it.
