We all die, correct? But not One in a Million Lives.

Protect, reignite Soul log. Hands prayerfully held, she bowed.

It was surprising. My answer was not what she had asked. Sitting in the grocery store parking lot about to pick up a few items. She a paraMedic, or EMT, it turns out.
She approached with the usual sort of pleasantries, didn't I see you back in such and such a town?
Ma'am, where I live is where we are murdering masses of children down on the southern border. I honestly have no idea what towns I've been through.
Instantly her hands were clasped in prayer and she bowed. Many of us are so appreciative of what you were trying to do, she said. Our conversation continued along these lines.
As long as someone tries there is hope, she said.

Ma'am, I'll tell you something I've learned And I told her how at Standing Rock, facing five years in prison if I stayed, which I did, is when I learned the lesson that I did not need hope, because I had lost it all, and still found that I was drawn forward to try and do good for the joy of it.
 She not only received it well but indicated that that was a message that she needed to hear.

Solar RV cycling August 1st. Extremely jealous relationship. With an intermediary sphere, one.thigh up, one thigh down, turning a belt, turning the sphere, that's it. Everything else gets punished.

Never ever could I work for a woman, nor for a man. Only four what my soul told me.

Plans for tomorrow, Susanville, a bike shop, to tune the trailer wheels, pick up a few supplies, and then continue on Ford Washington.

Right to pulse, not right to life, these twisted religious Fanatics are, with barely an exception. Life? They have zero concept of it.

The solar RV cycling log July 30. Huge backlog of unedited post. Major breakthroughs.

For James the torturous last 10 months of arduous low RPM high torque climbing were probably of tremendous value in terms of developing him as a cyclist.
Those arduous undertakings all

Not sure, but this may be why the trailer was wobbling all over the road all of a sudden.

Plan for the next 2 weeks approximately.

26 more miles left today. 1200 calories so far.

Thank you for what you are doing. Actually, you made my day, said the 50-ish man from his car window.

All that is left to do to live our lives in a way that it evokes the morality and others.

Solar RV cycling log on July 29. .... Constant pressure on a near vertical belt being grabbed... and pulled down Behind the knees With the other leg doing all that it can 

This seems like a gigantic step forward. 

interesting experiments have led to this the last several days. The logs from those days may or may not be posted. 

 The experiments and experiences in cluded the idea Of Turning the crank with the arms . This was a very stimulating and useful model. And for A-day although the power output was horribly lower 70 human watts per hour it was a very stimulating idea. And it was good that it happened. What was discovered later and confirmed today it seems is that The opposing legs cannot be of equal power. The downward leg must be of greater power both due to the human muscles and quite possibly gravity as well which is working against the upper leg and the advantage of the downward leg. 

 What seems to have a merged to is great prophet, a continuous belt, the 1st thought was of a pull down towel arrangement sometimes seen in restroom, but improve when it matures in to a continuous wide belt and the challenge for the body is to keep gently wiping downward pressure on that belt. And asking of the other leg constantly to do all that it can while acknowledging that can do a lot less than the downward leg. ....

Although James is experiencing linear progress At times it does not seem that way and maybe it is not. Point being, the reason that he creates these logs is to accelerate his own learning. It will be wonderful if it accelerates that of others. But he can take no responsibility for that. he needs to Create these logs to deepen his thinking, increase retention, and among other things provide the possibility of a faster recovery if the ideas that he pursues get way off track and he needs to do a complete reboot.

Epitaph on the graves of the human species. Even when Tolstoy provided the actual Jesus, the world was completely disinterested.

Revised plan. Getting through these metropolitan areas is difficult.

On a fairly busy highway that is settling down, off on a small pull out but in a metropolitan area. Sitting in the vehicle as it is now turning dust. Planning to sleep sitting up for a couple of hours expecting to hear from police whether I'm okay here or not. I don't hear anything in a couple of hours I suspect I'll tuck in the back and plan on departing very early in the morning.

Slight change in plans for tonight

The current plan to Yakoma, WA, leg 1. 30 mi/ day.

Generally, the plan for the next three months currently is something like this.

Titanic was doomed not when it hit the iceberg, but long long before when not enough sanity existed to stop the blind race across the ocean.

Solar RV cycling blog July 26th. Lay down, roll down, your thighs underside every inch of the trip. As gently as needed.

Moving toward the level of natural feeling of the heavy travel a year-and-a-half ago. Barely two-thirds of the power, but that may come, and it really doesn't matter. We are getting older. And it is not a time when extreme travel everyday is required.
All of the recent principles are being born out.
However, they are acting as stepping-stones stones toward what James is thinking is a higher level of Performance, Based on the current feel, and based on the relationship of this to some very good old Friends.
As per the subject line of this post, the best mental model today is to lay down the thighs, roll down the thighs, every inch of the trip. This helps achieve using the size as the power, and they invite a coordinated up list of the other leg in a useful fashion that has not been happening for quite a while.
Another quite useful idea which appeared and then disappeared several months ago, is to try and be as tired at the beginning of the journey as at the end. Yes. This at times invokes a level of relaxed cycling, without wasting energy on circinus.

Thu 26th

Plan for today is to reach the post office in Bridgeport, all downhill. Retrieve some packages that were forwarded. And then continue West Northwest about 10 miles to a resting spot for the night.

Saving the planet from Global extermination, hopeless. Handing some notion of goodness to the survivors, worth our lives.

Solar rv cycling log July 24th. James, you want to disable the lower legs? Remove any doubt they may have that your thighs are doing the job every inch.

Over the years disabling the the lower legs to keep them from interfering with the thighs has probably required more attention, been more distracting, than anything. 

Just this morning The subject line idea emerged. And it could well be the answer. When the feet ankles and calves are trying to get involved it may be a sure sign that the thighs are not doing 100% of the job. and the  lower legs will try to fill the gap. James, don't leave any gaps. 

this could be huge. 

All important lessons of the last 8 months, the last 3 years, And yesterday, all are playing a role today. This maybe one last important piece coming into place.

Protect reignite soul log July 23. we saw you climbing the Hill, we read your signs, we know what you are trying to do. We are with you.

Solar RV cycling log July 23. More theories?!? What?!?

This is freaking crazy! No, all of the prior theory should not be thrown out! Maybe they each have a place. What the hell is going on this morning? An

Solar rv cycling blog July 22nd. Total warning!

Best guess today is that almost all of the logs of the last 8 months Have been very good, if one wants to make the best of a faulty body mechanics model. I'm not sorry for James, but for anyone seriously following I am concerned. 

Although there are times in the last 8 or 9 months where James has Suddenly realize that this is a recumbent bicycle, It seems that never was that fully grasped, and never held on to. 

Point being, The fatal flaw has been, James thinks as of this morning, Lack of crystal clear clarity that All energy Need be directed 70ﾟ forward. Exactly as a cyclist would be directing energy straight down. 

James, you have spoken of this in the past! In approximate terms, yes. Fully grasping it, clearly grasping it, as is happening right now, maybe never, maybe not in the last 8 months, maybe not in all the years with this vehicle. 

 Maybe this post today is all a mistake. Doesn't seem possible. 

Also doesn't seem possible that it has taken James 3 or 4 years with this vehicle to grasp this now. Be that as it may, that seems to be the case. 

It cannot be disputed that the position of the cyclist in this vehicle is rotated approximately 70ﾟ backwards. Therefore, if a traditional cyclist is directing the force of each stroke Directly downward, then it is certainly appropriate that the cyclist in this vehicle direct all force 70ﾟ forward. 

That was done yesterday, and so far this morning. And it is a fairly Significant evolution, and maybe profound. 

The following has only one data point, but it is extremely interesting. For the last several weeks An application and watch fit bit have been employed. For many months James has calculated his energy input As a multiple of what the torque sensor reports, 3.6 being the multiple that translates Human W into calories. Most days this fitbit application that calculates calories based on heart rate elevations from resting, has reported considerably higher calories than the calculation 3.6 ×  torque sensor registered watts. 

The observation here maybe an aberration. And in several days there will be more data points. But the initial thought is that by lacking any clarity that the direction of energy must be 70ﾟ forward, much energy has gone into the last part of every stroke being downward, maybe 40ﾟ. If this was substantially wasted energy then it makes sense that although James has been putting X amount of energy into the crankshaft that much more energy has been expended, an additional 10, 20, 30% has been expended, wasted, in a last 2nd downward motion. Will be intere sting to see. Seems unlikely that this is not the case.

Solar RV cycling log July 21st part two. F*cking shoot me!

It is unbelievable, technique for James can not and will not settle down! this is unbelievable! 

New insights. That is a good thing! after years of doing this? F****** crazy! 

He has been clear on what hes trying to do .

Solar RV Cycling llog July 21st. oh, and then this cyclist passed. WTF?

Things are going quite well but it is just amazing how James is not finding the perfect brew groove.

Just good, decent, couple. Would be hard for anyone to think otherwise. This up at
