Bike Tour Eurasia's Guestbook

We have had a bit more spring snow up high, and quite a lot of rain! Still thinking of you guys headed through the revolving door into the great unknown when we dropped you at the airport! It's just a start and so many more adventures to be had! Can't wait to hear about them!

Ride the Snake
Keep the writing coming! Within these somewhat disconnected yet vividly coherent thoughts and emotions there are some jewels. For example, "He wore shabby clothes, had few teeth, talked like a madman, and inspired us both." Best wishes in your journey. We think of you often and follow your mouth, stomach, and mental sensations tenaciously. Love, Eliot

Sounds like you are off to a great start. I'll be thinking of you. I leave Tahoe on the 12th of May and head North to Alaska. Enjoy! Kathy

Don't breathe too deeply!
Great to hear from you Allison and Chad! So glad that you made the big crossing and have landed safely. That air pollution can be brutal on your lungs and cause permanent damage so don't breathe too deeply. This means that you will need to take care not to overexert yourselves in the heavily populated areas and save the hard biking for the middle of nowhere. The construction and industrialization boom in China, frankly, scares me to death. I fear that we are doomed, but hopefully you can do a good job of leading by example as non-standard, eco-friendly Americans! Stay healthy and safe. Best, Heather Segale

Wow!
LOVE the blog entry – both the substance and the style! Thanks for including me in your adventures. I look forward to your next entry. -Carina

"Smoke them if you've got them"
Dear Chad and Allison, What fun! The smoking issue in other parts of the world has always amazed me. The American companies did not need to be overly concerned about the US's attack on cigarettes since the rest of the world seems not to care. It may become our biggest export! I am getting tired of carrying water uphill to prepare for Denali. It will be nice to get onto the mountain. Bill Dwyer is guiding a group for Mountain Trip and we should see him up there. Stay healthy over there. Greg
