We have brought our experiment of living with bikes as a primary mode of transportation full circle. We started off tentative and over planned, and now we just pick up our bikes and go for there is no travel that is impossible. We even took on some of the snow this season.

I'm glad that you got back safe but,wish you were still here. I just wanted everyone to know that even away from home you still stayed "GREEN" and you are doing a good job of trying to help me also. I'm NEVER throwing away my birthday card, from you guys! It's not much but,at least there's a little less garbage. If I can get my my butt in gear I'm going to make a scrapbook from them all. I know, this was a dumb comment but,wanted to do it anyway. LOL! Love you & miss you!!
