Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.
Mathew 4:4
I'm commencing a 15 month bicycle journey in San Diego, CA that will take me to at least 28 states, and coast to coast. Canada is also in the plans for the spring of 2012 (weather permitting). If all goes smoothly, I will return to San Diego for the 2012 Presidential election in November. Camping will be my primary way to rest, however; it's unlikely I'll turn down the opportunity to experience some complimentary clean bedding and a warm shower along the way.
You are welcome to follow me on this blogsite. If you want me to address your questions, concerns, or comments, please be patient and I will do my best to respond appropriately.
I believe in the risen Jesus Christ and feel moved by his Holy Spirit to be a living testament of his love thru my actions, hopes and aspirations in this biking adventure.
I view this tour as a "Proclamation Tour", I believe that Jesus Christ came in the flesh, rose from the dead and through the work of the Holy Spirit is at work in my life and all those who live a life of faith. I want to live a life of thanks. Thanks be to God for giving me a productive body, ambition and the time and resources to do a tour like the one I'm on.
Let me say that I'm subject to change on this trip. Yes, I have goals and objectives for my travels but I also leave room for the possibility of change. It's currently 8/19/2012. I'm in Buffalo, NY now and let me tell you that when I planned this tour, I wasn't planning to be here now. Things change and I hope I can continue to be flexible to change.
I originally planned to complete this tour in 13 months but it's been extended now to 25 months. To be honest with you, I don't know if I'll ever get off the road!
Hi Francis!
ReplyDeleteI finally figured out how to respond to this posting.
I hope your health is fine and it seems like the weather is cooperating with you.
I hope you can fine tune your biking equipment.
You have done this a time or two and I know you will get it figured out.
Are you enjoying the ride?
I would bet towing all of that weight over a mountain top was a good work out.
Is the body holding up?
I sure miss hearing that gate on the side of the house squeak every now and then. That would remind me that you are home and that you are doing OK.
I am playing two racquetteball "B" leagues.
One in Clairemont and one in La Mesa. We have playoffs tomorrow in La Mesa and I may have missed the cut by two hundredths of a point.
I scored 130 points so far (total points over 5 weeks). If I scored one more point I would have made the cut. Joe eaked me out by one point. That bad boy.
Anyhow stay in touch and I will try to get this link to a few friends so they can follow your journey.
Everyone is doing well. Chris had a fall out of his chair and had to go get some stitches at Mercy hospital above his left eyebrow.
Thanks for sharing TommyBoy. Good to hear from you. It's been a while since I've checked my messages but it's nice to catch up with you.
DeleteIn terms of racquetball, wear protection! Prepare for the worst, hope for the best.
