CURRENT MISSION Three years ago I did a bike trip from Lincoln to Seattle. Two year ago I did a trip from Seattle down the coast to LA. Last year I biked from Lincoln to Pittsburgh by way of a round about tour of the great lakes. Now I'm biking from Pittsburgh to Bar Harbor, then down the coast to Key West. My Blog: http://elithevagabond.blogspot.com ABOUT ME I've spent the last couple years working at bike shops. I still don't really feel I know much about bikes, but my appreciation at least for them has grown considerably. I write often in my spare time and I have a couple books that will likely never see the light of day. I enjoy studying mythologies, ancient and new. I like to be active, and I feel like I only learn anything by doing it. I bike everywhere, and have never bothered to get a driver's license. I'm a vegetarian, because of all variety of reasons you can ask about if you feel inclined. I'm somewhat introverted and socially awkward, but I do my best to overcome it. I'm always excited to meet new people and learn and experience new things. PHILOSOPHY Life seems long as it occurs, but terribly short looking back on it. It only feels as long as the depth of the memories that you've made. So you had best make all the meaningful memories you can.
