One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycle from LA to Las Vegas over five days May 1994. Trip went up Big Bear Mountain (into the snow), then down into the desert (Barstow) in one day. Two days recovery there then 155 miles to Vegas on the last day - so tired the next day had to hitchhike (with bicycle) from the border all the way to Orange County, CA. I guess that was amazing....

Can show people bicycle repairs, suggest a few good books...
