I'm just blown away at the positive responses I get when I tell someone what it is I"m doing with my life. To see people's eyes light up with excitement gives me the strength to keep this ball rolling with hurricane like force. I think if the responses were just the opposite I would be questioning my decision and possibly cancelling my plans, but this just ensures me that this is for real and it is the path I am destined for. So thanks to everyone that has blessed me with positive enthusiasm over the last few weeks.
I posted a thread on mtbr.com (mountain bike forum) asking for help planning places to ride during my 4-5months of traveling. Once again I was blown away at the responses I got. A few people wrote some very long detailed replies that must have took 15-20min to type. That just confirms to me that this is the right time to begin a new adventure and use my experiences to inspire others to give up materialistic items in life and find out what brings them TRUE happiness. After seeing the excitement on the forum I am surely writing a book on my adventures for my fellow mtb brothers to read!
Then you get assholes like the people that were supposed to come look at my truck tonight!!! I drove 30min so their drive was cut down a bit, then they didn't show, and couldn't even call to tell me. I ended up visiting my good friend Jay Riddle and telling him my plans since I hadn't yet. As expected he was all for my change and wished me the best. Jay's so cool, I wish he could be president for a term or two. He's the type of person you need in control of this country! You are the man Jay!
