Day 1 June 27


So today was the 1st day of my trip to Seattle, on a bicycle. I left Clifton NJ early afternoon, i got a late start becouse i knew i only had to get to Highland Mills in NY 37 miles, That's where my freinds Tony and Carol live. For a 1st day it was a good practice distance, i have to say two things bothered me a little ,   i acounterd head on winds all the way up, and  i have to seriously look thru my stuff and think about things i need and things may need. I have about 50 lbs of gear and it feels little heavy, tomorrow i will be heading into Apalanche Mountains, from what i heard that  is the hardest section of the trip and with this load it will be tough.







           My brother Joe did not want me to go, look at him  almost looks like he's crying  :))))






              Marcin and he's wife Marta came to say good, and some last minute words of wisdom
                             Thanks guys.
