Friday rain. It will be a day of rest or a day of great Danger.

It is very dangerous to try and move Saul in the rain because of no windshield wipers, very poor visibility. It is hoped that the Walmart will be glad for us to stay not just one night for two nights in the parking lot. If so there is a library where the date can be spent catching up on about a dozen overdue post transcriptions and other work.

A better day saul and I never have had. Scrambling To maintain tight relationship with the scrambling knees scrambling to maintain a relationship with the scrambling petals.

Is not an attempt at a word salad here. These words are pretty descriptive of the best day sol n I have ever had. All it would seem due to the concept of scrambling. 

 Over the years James has come close to this kind of productive day with saul And that it was the absence of the concept that scrambling is the ideal

One of the sweetest encounters that James has had in his entire years. Such a privilege. Such a joy.

A month ago a wonderful suggestion came to James by a special T parts supplier that he finally met in Oklahoma City. James, if you had a small electrical generator gas driven then it could open up some substantial avenues for you the friend said. James looked incredulous and rightly the friend said oh, yes I know you're a purist. Well James is not a purist. Not that it would matter but he isn't. And

Hunger strike to stop Global Extinction

Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Clinton, Clinton, Obama, Obama, Bezos, Barr, Biden, McConnell, Musk, Gates,.....

This poor old body. How has it been able to do this? And we can't stop right now. Weather, holiday traffic, the lack of places to stay.

Ready or Not, Mississippi and Ohio rivers here we come.

 By late morning we should know. A local said that the traffic over these Bridges is very low contrary to what another source had said. Hopefully today is source is correct. And encouragingly Google thinks it's okay for a bike. We'll see.

Cycling. Why can't I just have a normal boyfriend?!?! Dear, they don't exist.

 James, if you are looking for a normal way to move sol , or the 400 pounds of you and soul that you move every day for between 4 and 8 hours, if you are looking for a normal sane relaxed understandable way of doing that, well, it doesn't exist. 

And this for the last 5 or 6 days is what you had

Attempted crossing of the Mississippi looks like Tuesday.

At best moving Saul is torture. But the alternatives are much worse. Video blog

And presumably their parents stand on the sidelines as did my parents generation when their children stood against dying in the evil horrible Vietnam War. We are.... totally failed species. When parents abandon their children who are fighting just lie that is a failed species. The parents choose their comfortable place in society over their children's very lives. And certainly over their children's future. With few exceptions having a child is simply a form of selfish entertainment when they are young and then they become dispensable.

Actual video of James cycling today

Shut up re rev, keep dying of preventable oligarchs rape, and let your planet be destroyed. Your corporate slave, Barack Obama

A day from hell. It did not kill us. Though it tried. We grew.

For the first four hours today James knew absolutely nothing about how to move this vehicle, he was exhausted, his body is sore, it was immensely frustrating.
Rear drive tire tube exploded twice within 5 MI. The second time upon closer examination it was seen that the impossible has happened. The extremely rugged Tire bead had separated show the tube was poking out and exploding. 3 hours lost repairing all this. Not sure why the tire failure but several theories. Too much weight on that tire. The horrible roads on that first day in Arkansas. Rim damage which may have caused cutting of the tire bead, damage from when so had to be rolled a mile and a half into the truck stop a week ago. But we are still on schedule for crossing the Mississippi On Wednesday. Some of the pressure for meeting that day is that Thanksgiving traffic is almost upon us.

General update vlog

If someone or something has me die soon, don't feel sorry for me. Feel sorry for the survivors. No, I have nothing specific in mind. But this is a pretty dangerous Journey.

Part 1 & 2. On the roadside with Charles

Vlog. What I have just heard from you is the reason that I stopped said Charles.

After a 7 or 8 minute exchange on the side of the road where Charles had parked his car ahead, hoping that we would stop.  

If you know James you know that he had the thought, O, A tourist. This as he was already wet in the cold with 4 hours of hard cycling ahead. But if you know James mental objection was fleeting and in hindsight as per usual James was exceedingly glad with the stop. 

rather immediately Charles indicated he had seen the vehicle earlier, had read the messages, and knew that he needed to hear from me. 

Based on that wondered if I would accept a donation. I said yes but then quickly added, not on false pretenses… 

On the tombstone for the human species: Obama was our last chance to hear the truth and instead he sold us out.

Not sure why but desperately tired in recent days substantially hurting productivity on all fronts.

For the last half-hour today a pair of red tail hawks played hide-and-seek with saw. It was wonderful. They finally sat still long enough for me to get a few photographs.

I'm married to a white woman. What you are saying is not b*******.

For some extra planning time on how to get across the Mississippi a relatively short day today and staying at a non brand truck stop which is great.

A very nice mid 40s African American man working the chicken counter helped me determine that it

New plan.

According to some police the bridge up just south of Cairo, not an interstate, vehicles must go at least 40 miles an hour. But that bicycles have done it before and as long as they don't get caught.....

An ounce of expectation on others is a ton of discouragement. 0 expectations in the face of genuine need, extreme encouragement.

If all goes well 7 days until Kentucky. Tennessee is extremely inhospitable to overnight parking, Walmart, gas station, anyplace. The next three nights are also very sketchy.

A gigantic unknown is whether the bicycle pedestrian bridge across the Mississippi at Memphis is wide enough for us. The Arkansas officials never really answered that and they probably don't know for sure. They wouldn't pay attention to such things.

Monumental problem. Where can this vehicle across the Mississippi?

We are currently about a hundred and twenty miles west of Memphis. The goal was to hit the southeast tip of Kentucky but as of tonight James is realizing he has no idea where this vehicle can cross.

Start 1st with what you cannot use, James. each day. Each beginning after every stop. As often as needed.

So many other discoveries in recent weeks and longer accomplish this but in a round about way and un reliably. It may be that this route idea will enable more consistent excellent effective thought free

It is fake news. MSNBC, NBC, CBS, CNN.... The truth on Palestine? Bolivia? Global incineration... ? Corporate propaganda.

Gen plan

For you, dinner is free. WTF?

 Arrived James did after a nearly 4000 calorie trip at and all you can eat Asian buffet In his destination town. He was told upon entering that yes there was a seat by a plug so he said thanks so stay, and out he went to retrieve his huge cooler of batteries that ways a ton, and his back pack of chargers. James

Best start ever today? It may be.

Few if any better. 

The ingredients? Several. 

Item. 0 energy detectable beyond the 1st 1/3 of the thighs. 

Item. Seek 100% of energy in the continuous turbine

Catastrophe? Newest motor destroyed?

Not destroyed. It was a loose connection on one of the three main wires. It was the least likely so it was the last thing diagnosed and mercifully it was the problem because otherwise it was a destroyed motor and that's a problem.

So we're off and rolling. More than three hours later. But some good learning occurred, Lessons Learned, hopefully, James, Lessons Learned, correct? And some upgrades to the electrical system as a consequence.
