Dear Readers,
Several years ago I went on an EPIC BICYCLE ADVENTURE!! Unfortunately, I never finished a Part III (despite my empty promises) and so readers were left in the lurch, forever deprived of the sort of happy ending they’ve come to expect from yours truly(DOUBLE ENTENDRES!!). Languishing for years in the DRAFTS folder of this mighty blog was the skeletal outline of that post. Much time and many adventures have passed since June of 2011, and I must admit that I will never be able to recapture the narrative flow of those initial posts. So instead, I offer you a thrilling LOOK BEHIND THE CURTAIN at how the blogging sausage is made!
I AM A TERRIBLE FRAUD!
Follow me below the fold for notes and placeholders that I can no longer make sense of, a shabby outline, 2 slightly different false starts and a picture of a pretty cool snapping turtle…
(The contents of the DRAFT folder appear exactly as they were abandoned in 2011):
So I never finished the Cumberland to Pittsburgh blog post series. And now, I’ve gone on another trip of even more epic scale (although with fewer epic adventures). As a result, I am going to elide the 2 stories so my dear readers will be caught up on all things cycling. Here goes:
Woke up, met up with J-Press friends, ate breakfast, (local idiots try to pass off pork sausage as vegetarian to the vegan friends.) started biking. Saw a cool snapping turtle.
And now, for the thrilling conclusion of our bicycling adventure.
It turns out I love biking. I do NOT enjoy sleeping on the ground. Unfortunately, this is a necessary trade off that one must make to experience the thrill of a self supported long distance tour. I woke up on Saturday morning with a stiff neck, but otherwise ready to move. Thanks to J-Press, we had arranged to stay with his friend M0Lz (blog name) in Pittsburgh. M0lz and her friend L0Lz met us in the morning in Ohiopyle, where they would ride with us to the end of the trail to their waiting car.
J-Press headed out early to visit Falling Water. Poz and I decided to skip the side trip when we learned that the route was straight up a cliff.
