I'm one week in, The ride is in fact hell between points. But I can tell you is, the 1 to 2 days at any one spot is getting old fast.. I'd rather be riding two days on and one day off, but now its the oppisite. The trailer and weight problem has been fixed, However I'm still having shifting issues. The one person that said he could fix it,IF I got it to him went on vacation the day I arrived in his home town Ashland, I paid$ 40 to get a new axel and hub work done, But this gentelman stated I'd need new shiftrs... (they are new shiftrs, and these didn't stop the problem, why would another set be a fixer, IDK).. These cost are killing me, nad its not just that, when sittng idle, you tend to consume more than youneed o survive( SPACEBAR IS STARTINGTO ACTUP AGAIN). So-now-I have-to go-back-to-doing-this..
I'll-be-leaving-from-the-KOA-camp-ground-Thursday-morning-Dave-McCrackin-with DTB-is playing-Charlottesville-Va-this-sat,But thats 120+/--miles away, If-I-left-today-I-could-catch-it,But-I'm-goih-to-miss-seeing-my-friend,AND-NO-MATTER-WHAT,I-cant use-or-gain-any-mileage-on-anyting-but-a-peddle-powered-ride..This-makes-me-sad-that-Im-forced-to-miss-the-show,I-cant-do-60-miles-a-day-with-the-shifter-problems-Im-having..If-it-was-working-like-it-should-I-would-barely-make-it,HOWEVER,I-wont-make-it-at-all..
I've been so stressed (yes the spacebar is working again), I am doing a 1/2 pack of smokes a day..NOT GOOD!!..And to boot,I've got a angry spider somewhere in my tent, every morning I wake up with 2 to 6 new welts on my BUTT and legs.. and they ITCH LIKE A CRAZY. I guess its thinking like Murph E.Dog, Its my fault thatits raining outside.. So both are going to takei it out on my..........
Well speaking of which, my butt is going numb now, sitting onthis concrete floor, I need to move and keep my legs limber, when the intefnet is bette or if I hit a library I'll give better details, on whats goings down, cash is getting tight, and as long as Im in this historic side of the ride, I dare not try to use the Coinmaster, in fear of it getting it taken away from me and locked up.. The camp ground manager and I will go and try his and mine out tonight on the grounds, but I have to split it 50/50 on the findings, fair enough for me,, I type at you all later.....
