Impressive Sean, from the man who still sends pigeons as messengers rather than keep up with the trend of telephones or even e mail, I'm amazed that you've managed to keep a blog.
Are you paying someone to do it for you? Good luck pal, sounds like an amazing time, keep up the good work
Still not sure how your managing all this- I managed to lock my keys in my boot on wednesday so had to walk 3.1 miles home and that nearly killed me in this heat!
You look like you are quite close to the clouds there!! Did *not* know that the Yanks spelled gnome with a "k", though. You learn something new every day at Beardwatch dot com!
Pics 'n' stuff You're getting good at the laurel and hardy crashes / fall of your bike moments! The canyon ride looks incredible, so beautiful. And yes, you must like your shadow a lot to put it on three times - have lots of sarky comments coming to mind, but probably not viewer friendly ones! 121 miles - awesome - you seem to be doing much better than the first time you did approx 120 miles...
Chillies Mate, sounds like you are having a great time. Try and pick me up some local chillie seeds in Pueblo or any other interesting places. Will be following you everyday.
Beard Ok, so now that you've got rid of it, I can admit I was intrigued about seeing the beard, but I have to say seeing the pics makes me so happy you shaved it off! Ridiculous thing. I have finally won this long battle...
Impressive I am so jealous! I'd love to imagine you drinking beer in these hickey mid-west towns with the locals! Great pics, I'm impressed with the regular blogs too!
Keep an eye out for the red rock candy mountain, and bring me some back :-)
Showed the pictures to my form group today and they're all impressed, not gone through the whole blog but they all wish you luck!
pimp your bike With the horn and ipod attached, you may just convince me to get into cycling. Now if you can teach me to pee while cycling as well I'm definitely interested.
I can't decide if that burger wets my appetite or turns me off food forever, but I'm almost as impressed with you finishing that as I am with you doing this trek in the first place!
t shirts and washing yes, by any normal standards i probably do smell more than is socially acceptable. i have 5 cycling jerseys so i will make more of an effort to rotate them. today i'm in a fresh alzheimers UK jersey and black lycra with matching accessory gloves and hat. it'll be all the rage next season
Hey Sean,
It all sounds amazing! Although you always seem to be wearing the same t-shirt. You must be really smelly by now!
Awesome blog. I'm loving catching up on progress and am VERY VERY VERY jealous!

Not a lot on this week. Is Kansas really that dull?
