I am going to tour the Texas Hill Country in March 2008.  I plan on going about 300 miles over 14 days of leisurely riding.  Some campgrounds, some free camping, occassional motel if soaked.  Some cooking and some restaurants.  Would like one or more traveling companions.  If interested contact Lee Stork at spartanstorkbird@excite.com.

Gear Talk / Wreck with trailer?

« on: July 31, 2004, 09:54:24 pm »

I bought a trailer recently.  Upon loading it up, on the first downhill I crashed breaking 4 ribs and collar bone.
Has this happened to anyone else?

General Discussion / Bicycling Stroll through the National Parks

« on: July 31, 2004, 09:38:41 pm »

I am planning a one year long bicycling stroll through the National Parks of the USA.  This stroll is aimed at newly retired senior citizens.  Mileage will be about 30 miles per day to smell any flower they want to.  An RV and a scout truck will accompany us.  The RV is so we can shower when camping for free and to keep the food and meat cold.  The scout truck is to locate our next lunch stop and for locating our evening camping spot.  We plan to 1) free camp when available 2) backcountry camp where available 3) national parks or state parks 4) commercial campgrounds.  This will be participatory camping with each person doing a task each day.  I would like comments and suggestions as to the feasibility of this plan.  Thank you.
