Solar rv cycling log August 28. James was a cyclist yesterday.
James was a cyclist with saul for the 1st time in a year.
Extremely high metrics? Not at all. But satisfactory. And He was cyclist with the injoiment that that brings.
With, the concept with as it was working in James yesterday, with saul, Seems to have been the magic.
Perfect storm of obstacles was this Winter. Any one of the 3 elements could and possibly would have been sufficient for the torment, the blindness in interacting with saul. Interacting on saul. In no particular order, excruciating Li low cadence. Difficult climbing 100% of the time period Crippling torturest Horrible Urga nomic seat alignment.
Probably the post yesterday is sufficient in further detailing some of what was Going on in yesterday's Journey where saul was a cycle and James was a cyclist. With

Solar RV cycling login August 27th period Spinning with asol a small sphere at the knees. Not powerful but sufficient. Not frustrating, sustainable. Encouraging.
With, as discussed the last several days, seems very promising and recollection says that it was part of The benchmark Cross Iowa event. Beginning today is journey the concept with saul was very helpful.
Item. Then The object of a sphere at the farther reaches of the knees emerged. That too was cross Iowa.
Item. And then later With, became spinning with Saul, spinning with saul.
Update. Indeed the relationship between James and Saul is in the area of the knees.. And it seems that extremely solid fist-bumping is what Saul best responds to. And the place of that fist-bumping changes from moment to moment but it is quite clear when that relationship is established. It was very satisfying for many hours today. And quite powerful when necessary.

We. James, we. Not you, we. WIth. With. With.
Many old friends come to mind including this one exactly long forgotten. Or not that long. The notion of a 900 pound object was an approximation, an attempt, at we. Even yesterday's notion of two energy streams, one and primary to maintain engagement between the knees and soul, the vehicle, Was a close approximation of this period and probably the matchmaker that allowed for the notion of we to return today. We may be the closest we're going to get. It is never James on the vehicle, where sanity and harmony can exist, but only every instant James and soul. We.
Wigs. Wiz. We'd. Wiz. With Seoul. Not too soul, with soul. We, James with soul.
Moments ago we was seeming to sufficie . With James and his body also needs the concept with. Why? Not sure, but they both helped, and neither is sufficient by itself. Although if one is sufficient it is With.

Walmart tonight, is it pure evil, Robin Hood, or both?
Here in this agricultural fruit growing region, the store was filled almost entirely with those who are native to America, South at least and maybe some from the north. The shopping carts full of food, toys, and other products. A very nice store. Very very fair pricing even competitive with Amazon probably.
Who else is serving the underclass in this country as well as Walmart? Nearly as well as Walmart?
Walmart is a robber to do this and the Walton family obscenely wealthy , no excuse.
But are they not robbing from Middleclass America and serving the underclass? How is that fundamentally different than what Robinhood did?
The Republicans certainly would never provide such service to the underclass, any more than would the Democrats. And the middle class never did, they to robbed, but from the poor. And still do.

The next eight hundred miles leg of the journey is scheduled to begin tomorrow morning.
The first eight hundred miles the ultimate Target was the bearded monkey bike shop. It was not an idle choice. The expertise, Soul, Spirit, goodness, of this team was what this 30000 Mi 48 states attempt needed to make us ship shape. And their store was the only place I knew to get it.
https://bearded-monkey-cycling-and-fitness.business.site/
And yes they did. What kindness, goodness, decency, creativity, brilliance. Inspiration.. Wind under our wings. So sad I was to find out my prior visit I already used up my space on Yelp and Google Maps trying to sing the Praises of this wonderful Enterprise.
So few individuals is the world better off for having, and here is a whole Enterprise of them. They are so lucky to have each other. As is Yakima, the world, Sol and I are so lucky.
Thanks to these folks, maybe first thing this morning, Saturday, we start the Trek to Billings.

Solar rv cycling log August 18. how can it be this hard? How can it be this easy?
If James finds time to put up yesterday's post .... When if you read it and then read this one you get to laugh, be angry, be frustrated, see that James is a fool….
Yesterday James thought that he had this mastered.
My Not very nice dual one finger salute to two girls that drove by. Is that really bad?
Early twenties I'll guess. Park service road well paved in the middle of nowhere. It was a spontaneous decision by James to take this road and he had not done the proper mapping. He reached a point where it was unclear if the switch backs on the map were going down or up and there was no Internet to verify. So on this wide road James in his cycling tights, no place to conceal a weapon, way of the side of the road, motioned in a begging fashion for them to stop so he could ask a question about the road ahead, as if it continued climbing there was not enough energy in the battery to do it.
They continued to slowly go on by. Spontaneously he walked into the road and gave them a 2 handed salute. After a while one of the females provided a salute in return as they drove slowly away.
James is smiling at himself, not proud of this but he is not sure it was a badd idea. Didn't they deserve some sort of a reaction to bring into question their lack of humanity? And even now he can't think of a better way of serving them.

The life of men, who do not understand that they are not living in this world that they may eat and drink and make merry, but that they may all their life work for God, is like this: a master planted a garden, got it into good shape, and did everything that it might bring forth fruits. And he sent labourers into the garden, to work, to gather the fruits, and to pay him for the garden according to the agreement. This master is God, the garde....

Solar rv cycling blog August 17. The orb is back, 900 pounds. Beware the new controller!!!
This is a summary log of the last week highlights.
Item. Remembering 900 pounds approximately, keeping that in mind, appears to be The Rosetta Stone. Or close their to. If it is forgotten misery and extraordinary inefficiency can be expected. Immense frustration as the legs try and make sense by themselves of the vehicle and what to do. On the arduous 2800 Callery trip from Redmond to broken rim We almost beat ourselves to death chasing the vehicle with our legs trying to figure out where the hell it was and what the hell it was. When we remembered that we were 900 pounds, almost immediately the legs could make sense of things. Isn't that amazing?
Cycling log continued. Item. It is a 900 pound object.
Item. It is a 900 pound object.
item. It is a 900 pound object….
Item. the 900 pound object can be moved only by the knees, back of the thighs.
item. It is possible for James to achieve that total of faith where the body accepts that all of the movement possibility of that 900 pound object is at the needs, back of thighs, and that all energy elsewhere in the lower legs is subtracted from that energy. It may be easily repeatable, it may be extremely difficult.
item. When this faith is fully implemented at least today the effortless power was impossible to believe. Multiple times James looked down expecting to see a 60 or 80 human watts to encourage himself to find more ability to apply pressure to that object with the thighs, and instead, what he saw was a 130, a 150, a 160. This is a harbinger of a return to power levels not seen in a year and a 1/2 or more.
Item. Sometimes the 900 pound orb at the knees is quite small, 5" in diameter, sometimes 2 or 3 times that diameter. Much to practice and learn about here. Important update. Complicated by the discovery noted below that the newer generation controller makes finding the orb nearly impossible, maybe impossible, sometimes the object is best found and felt and pressured simply by the back of the thighs. Much more to learn here. But the learning may be fairly rapid.
Item. Somehow the notion clearly in mind 900 profoundly resets the expectations of the body, legs of what their challenge is. Maybe this effect will vanish. Hopefully it will be very persistent. It is invaluable. Without that notion clearly in mind the leg bless their heart when the resistance Decreases they have the notion that they can go and Chase and little bit more power. And it totally exhausts and it is beyond frustrating almost to tears and all day was spent the other day trying to do it and it is not achievable by James.
with the 900 pound object firmly in mind the legs instead Tend to favor of the thighs, much more strong, and they almost instinctively don't fall for the tease that they can go Chase this object. Rather when they feel it moving away, slight decrease in grade or whatever, a motor artifact, they don't get suckered in, they get patient and they wait for the object to come back to them, or, they more humbly try and find where it is what it is doing instead of chasing it. This effect cannot be overstated. It is the difference between misery and harmony.
Item. Not as crucial import is body position. James has regained a fair amount of confidence in the shape and orientation of the seat. .... With full faith that all of the force is there on the object behind the thighs slightly improved places of leverage it is important to explore.
item . There was a notion which has not persisted today but useful that the knees, the knee area, and the underside of the knees, are the new feet. The natural tendency of having the feet be the ultimate place where power is applied to the crank. There was help in resisting that with the notion and the feeling and finding the feeling and re finding the feeling that the knees are the new feet. They really are.
Item. When the faith spoken of above is fully in place which it was for substantial periods today all focus, all energy, all notion is in that knee area.

Pt 1. Forced to leave their property I was.
By their generosity, almost literally I was forced to leave their property. These the folks largely responsible for the vehicle receiving a part in the middle of nowhere, the next day instead of 4 days later.
They live in material heaven, Mount Hood is within view of their house, beautiful pine forest. Very remote. Yesterday morning James rang the doorbell as his only hope of finding an address where a replacement for the broken trailer rim might arrive. The soul, my sister, that opened the door could not have been kinder, more gracious. An emergency I said, quickly adding, no blood. She just could not have been kinder. Including advising me that they had a particularly good relationship with the UPS driver, sometimes meeting the driver halfway for the driver's convenience to reduce the otherwise 40 or 60 mile hour drive.
James' body is Truly amazing. An extraordinary servant. Beyond imagination. Beyond his understanding.
Throughout his adulthood various missions have caused him to push it way beyond what most people would even consider. 2 days ago fit bit said that the exercise itself was 2800 calories. Just one recent example.
This incredibly faithful body, It really doesn't complain much, When the mission is serious it just figures out how to do it.
But equally amazing is how it can find or spot opportunities To rest. They might not come for weeks or months. But when they arrive, the mission cannot continue for some brief period, the body asserts itself, And James and his soul pretty much cannot resist. It is really miraculous. so when the body saw that travel would not occur the next day it absolutely took over. But I wanna do some repairs, James said, body said, fucky you. Fucky you. Fucky you. We are resting. We are going to rest. Shut up and rest. It was not at all harsh like that, it just delivered paralysis. And it has done this many times before period how the fok does it know? But it does.
Well in the midst of a deathlike sleep at 8 o'clock this morning, James, we are leaving some water and some food bars by your tote. We will see you later. And he said a name which I did not recognize and he knew mine. From outside Sol alone on the Forrest road shoulder….. To be continued
