Practically all Americans are severely brain-damaged. The Trump supporters, the most.


The human species in large numbers disgusts me.


Biggest burn in years today? It was a good ride, difficult, high winds but mostly favorable. Very cold tonight.

Preparations for the cold, mostly making available winter clothing, seems adequate so far. We seem to be prepared and up to the challenge.



Dark chocolate.

Oct. 10. We helped to Stir a soul. More credit to the soul than to James. Protect, reignite Soul log. 

In the hardware store today picking up a bit that had been ordered there were 2 cashiers, both female. The one handling my order was very polite and Happily respectfully dismissive of my answer to her questions, where was a going, to all 48 States which my soul told me to do before self immolating at 1 of the concentration camps where we are destroying children because their skin is the color of Earth, life, not the color of death, bleached bones, like mine. There was another female cashier, late twenties may be, and she seemed to move way. After going to the restroom, James returned to the counter to retrieve his goods, and this other cashier said, I don't know if you like dark chocolates, but here are several. It seems that she almost had tears in her eyes. Of grief and solidarity.

Citizens want the truth, essential to their role in governing. Consumers want what they desire to hear. There are no citizens.


The Press gives Their audience what they need to hear, infotainment gives what they will buy. There is no press.

2 of these photographs are beautiful, one fuckings ugly. Unless like an alcoholic might consider a find bottle of scotch beautiful, in which case they are all lovely. Stop fucken consuming! Stop at. Stop the rape. A rape in a luxury hotel is still a rape. Stopped the rape.

Oh, we are at 7000 feet. So that's why is a little short


***** October 7th. rule number one, plant your Perineum. 2. Repeat. 3. Every moment that is necessary.


Such a simple gigantic evolution and combination. 

So much of the last year has been James' body fighting itself. 

Some of that fighting, maybe much, maybe most, has been the body desperately seeking a place to work from, a place to fight from, a center. And left to its own devices it goes for the pedals. Maybe this is not unlike running where somehow the ground  becomes a center to work from. A platform, a base. 

Be that as it may.  

Beginning a week or so ago the perinium, that 3 or 4" bit of tissue in the crotch became apparent . And attention to it helped a lot. But just yesterday it came to greater clarity. Plant it James 1st thing you do and the 2nd and the 3rd and repeat, plant it. 

This happens automatically peddling a conventional cycle. But for James in this recumbent nothing automatic about it. 

Nor does the body fight it or dislike it. 

Nor does the body do it intuitively or easily remember it without some vigilant reminding. And monitoring. This is a wonderful development. 

It is hugely liberating of the legs in an odd sort of way. It lets them flail, flap, spin. All dangerous words but the best I can think of at the moment. There is no less power or sustainability than anything else James has attempted and probably 30% more available raw power and absolutely sustained. This is not a gimmick anymore than sitting on a hard narrow conventional Leather bike saddle was a gimmick for James in all his developmental years as a kid. But in this recumbent and probably any recumbent achieving the same  biomechanics, the same physical situation requires some imagination and vigilance.

This Magnificent vehicle, we are more than a ton, the parts aren't built for us. But we continue to go on.

New ebike motor, less than three hundred miles, among the strongest maid, five of six bolts totally stripped. 3 hours on the side of the highway in the middle of nowhere, the threads are repaired, helicoils, And we seem to be mobile again. Our skills have grown. We don't take failure easily.

***** October 3rd period James, stay in your conventional hard leather bicycle saddle, participate, not control, participate, from there.


important insights. 

By the way, this vehicle does not have a conventional hard leather bicycle saddle. But It is essential to high power high performance efficient sustainable cycling that we live as though we do. And we can. And we do, except when we forget. 

For James at least the apparent fact is that this recumbent and maybe every recumbent, definitely this recumbent, invites James into what turns about to be a horrible fantasy world where there are all sorts of ways to operate other than from this imaginary Hard narrow Leather conventional bicycle seat. And they are all horrible sacrifices of everything that a cyclist would want. 

And when it is remembered which is usual now, when it is brought to mind almost instantly James settles in and it automatically solves a host of sins and automatically brings a host of virtues. For the sins one can look at just about any log from a month ago to a year ago. 

The specific virtues Are basically what any  good conventional cyclist would never even give a thought to. Sitting hard in that seat without ever thinking about it, the lower extremities need to operate around that seat, it is in a way the center of the universe that is just taken for granted. 

Well, who would ever think that anatomically that's a mistake? It is not. But for James in 24000 miles over 4 years in this vehicle it never remotely presented itself clearly until the last week. There were hints all the way. There were approximations all along the way through it but only in the last 2 weeks  the subject line above present itself. 

 And the Notion of participating which came Maybe a month ago as a tremendous advantage, participating as opposed to Iattempting to control the speed and momentum of the vehicle, we are 12000 .... But it is incredibly tempting for James to deny the reality particularly after A-day of really good performance. It is totally not willful but there are reflexes that just say go and control it he did yesterday. We never did! .... But so far the notion of 'participating' near instantly dissolves the horribly destructive delusion that we can control saul. We can't. But goodness can we make a big contribution if we merely sit on that seat and attempt to contribute. Attempt to participate 

These last 5 days have been in a city environment meaning stop and go. Not a dense city but stop and go all the weeks prior with few exceptions were open road. 

City environment, stop and go, it turns out is extremely seductive of all the wrong inclinations, leaning forward instead of shoulders back and chin tucked, and leaning forward as opposed to serious deliberate reclining of the shoulders invokes all the wrong reflexes in all the wrong muscles. See prior posts. The 1st idea brought to mind that helped to put things back in order was James, participate, don't try to control the vehicle, you can't. This moving from a stop at a stop light not wanting to hold up traffic, for example. But then, Stay seated on that saddle, and then everything began to really work well again. 

And the metrics we deliver are almost unbelievable. On everything less than a 4% or greater incline we are Carrying, James is carrying At the least 20% of this 1200 pounds payload. And James weighs 160 pounds. And more typically on flat ground in a no wind situation He is Carrying at least a 3rd and sometimes half of the 1200 pounds. 

October 3rd period Soul in charge is easy for James. Remembering, that's been very difficult. Protect, reignite, resuscitate soul log.


 Probably a month it has been at least since James has had his soul firmly in charge, his reason for being, his definition of humanity and that the sanity, his hope for any and every individual. WTF? 

It is so easy to get distracted and to

Solar RV cycling blog October 3rd. All fryer energy estimates underestimated by 30%.

We just got on the scale. We are not 900 pounds or 850. We are 1,200 pounds. I don't understand it, but that's what we are. Plus or minus 20 lbs. So recently James has not been carrying himself Plus 70 lbs, 225 lbs total, he has been carrying himself + 140 lb, 300 lb total.
We stopped in here to drop off a dead electric motor to be recycled. We saw they had a scale and they were happy to have us get on it.

The main motor, is dead.

The hidden rust was extremely Advanced and separated the crucial magnets and Metal parts. A replacement should arrive Thursday, maybe tomorrow. Financial bleeding.
