What's This?
In late 2005, I decided to pedal across the country on a recumbent
tricycle. I set off from Yorktown, Virginia on May 25, 2006, and traveled over 5,000 miles.
That's not quite as impressive as it sounds: only 2,000 of those miles were covered using my leg muscles. To find out more about that, you'll need to read through these archives.
Using a laptop, an EVDO modem, solar panels, and a custom-built Black
Box full of mysterious electronics, I wrote about the journey from
the road, Live As It Happened.
This was, I thought, about finding America. It turned out to be more
of an experiment in psychological endurance within the context
of physical challenge.
Which is a fancy way of saying I went out of my mind. |
