  4. WHAT NEXT INDEED!! Now your only limitation is a road and there are millions & probably billions of those.

    No flats, no bike problems whatsoever?! Amazing. Do you still have toes left? What's most amazing is your steadfast dedication to this grand trip.

    Love the stories about meeting people along the way. That's what sets bike touring apart. It's those casual and unpredictable encounters that keep you coming back for more. It's a great way to get a snapshot of a place.

    My helmet is off to you in a huge way and I can't wait to go for a ride and hear your tales first hand. See you soon and have a safe return! Al

We are very excited in this house to know you are safely and happily there. We wish you a happy graduation celebration! Hurray Ed and Tyler. Lynn
