Introduction



This summer, I plan to ride across Canada by myself, carrying all my stuff. I cycled across the Untied States in this way during the summer of 2007 ( http://sharon159.home.att.net). This trip will just continue that homeless wandering. Please join me here and leave comments as I add to this blog from my laptop.

I will leave Southern California May 9 on a ship bound for Vancouver, BC. From there I will pedal east to Bangor, Maine, some 4000 miles.

6/8 Drumheller, Alberta

    We're breathlessly waiting (while you luxuriate up the coast) for your first real post from the bike trip! Anonymous (Johnzie) above is right! I am guessing (as you know) China is next, they love bikes there, (as I have shown on my own pages) but first... here we go on your adventure!

    I wish you good roads, pleasant weather, and gentle places to rest. I look forward to hearing about what you discover about your environment, yourself and other sentient beings along your journey. You go girl!
