A Year On The Road: Slide Show Extravaganza!

It has now been one year and a few days out here on the road.  As Iwas going through my photos to prepare some kind of a quick slide showto prepare on my iPod in order to show passers by what I was up to outhere, I found myself, on October 15 – the one-year […]

Athens to Keffalonia: Photos

Here are photographs that document the past couple of weeks in Greece, from Athens, across the Peloponnese, to the island of Keffalonia. This collection includes shots of the Acropolis in Athens, riding across the Peloponnese, as well as of general life on the road: camping, ferry rides, etc.  Thanks go out to my friend Jenine […]

Keffalonia, Greece

Jenine and I have now made our way from Athens west across the Peloponnese to the island of Keffalonia.  The ride to get here has been great, involving some positive aspects and some negative. On the bright side we have enjoyed some delicious food (Greek Salad, Pasta, pitas, kalamaki (meat on a stick), tsatsiki, and […]

Last Day in Athens

It is a warm, sunny Saturday in Athens.  Jenine arrived two days ago, and we are going to be leaving Athens (finally, though sadly as I have made some new friends here) tomorrow morning.  I went out to meet Jenine at the airport here, a 40 minute bus ride from downtown, where she emerged from […]

Errands in Greece

After about two weeks in Athens, things are good.  The city is much larger than I had first realized, full of traffic, electric buses, and people.   The city has a metro system which makes it very easy to get around even while my bicycle is in the shop with a broken rear hub. My […]

Still Moving

Since the last update, which went up when I was in Knin, Croatia, I have been moving along by bicycle, bus, and ferry.  It has felt at times as though I were traveling by bus and ferry as much as by bike.  And, indeed, that may be the case.  From Knin, I rode south to […]

Quick Update From Croatia

The past week has been one of the most full, rich weeks of the tour in terms of people, publicity, and riding.  I am sitting in a cyber cafe in Knin, Croatia right now feeling sun burn on my back as I type a quick update for our brand new website which has been created […]

Through Italy, into Slovenia, on to Croatia

I am now in Kozina, Slovenia, a small city just E of the Italian border. It took me four days to get here from Venice. My route took me NE to Trieste, then up over some hills and into Kozina. Today I will ride to Ljubliana, and tomorrow I will ride across another border into […]
