It's not a bicycle built for two, but it is going to get me to California. After much waiting and some adventures with a stuck seatpost, I now have a bike equal to the challenge of crossing the country. In other news, the ORO live album sound great, many thanks to those guys for putting on a great show and giving me such a fun project to work on while my bike was being built. I've been stay with friends in Boston since my last post, but I was back at Olin yesterday and today for expo and SCOPE expo. I saw some very cool projects that the Olin students have done this past year. Tomorrow I will get bike shoes and start collecting the last few items that I need for my trip. Five days now until I leave, I'm very excited.
