Well, everything don’t always go according to plan. Even still this phase of my adventure is right on schedule.

📽 Bike Tripping To The Hardware Store
I don’t why, but manufacturers never have seemed to be serious about mirrors on peddle bikes. I guess not too many people ride in traffick, but nowadays they are making electronic monitors.
📽 Getting Outfitted For My Adventure To The Amazon Jungle
Well, the cat’s outta the bag. Some people have asked: “Where are you going on the Grand Slam Plan! adventure?” Everybody knows, I’m headed for the Amazon Jungle!
📽 Bike Tripping To Ditto Landing
Yesterday I went bike tripping to Ditto Landing. This is a fun and scenic bike ride from downtown Huntsville with almost half on the Aldridge Creek Greenway. What a beautiful day too!
📽 My Cool Roadster
I don’t know what it is, but when the time comes to drink beer, something magic happens. Even my cool roadster seems to work better.
Cleanup For Grand Slam Plan! Adventure
When I started looking around at all the old junk sitting around the house in boxes, not to mention all the empty boxes accumulated preparing for the adventure, I knew it was time for a house cleaning.
Mouse Meets Keyboard
I’ve been having a terrible time of it trying to move old backups to newer storage lately. Some of the data disc protocols don’t work on newer computers but thankfully I kept the old Sony knowing it might come in handy – it worked!
📽 Bike Rideabout Equipment Check
I’ve got a lot of irons in the fire these days and one thing I needed to do was test my camera with holder on a bike rideabout. I already knew I was gonna get some camera shake but you don’t know how to make adjustments until you test it out.
My My My Boogie Shoes
I am lovin’ my new boogie shoes! They’re made of “Gortex.” I don’t know what that is but it sounds like something Al Gore might have invented. They are really good for walking around in too. I can walk on smooth concrete or rocky pavers either one just as good as the other – and I can dance around in the moonlight iffen I want.
