Born Free 4: A Bteam Perspective Part 2

Day 2:

The sun came up and we were on our way again.


At our first gas stop Josh and Patty had stopped right before the turn into the gas station. 
We were all laughing because Josh kept running out of gas less than a mile from each gas station and this was the closest yet.  I saw Jeff run up to investigate and start rolling the bike toward the gas station. 


Turns out the oil cap had flown off of Josh's bike and covered the bike ( and Patty) in oil.
What was it with the first stop each day?


Jeff and Josh cleaning up the mess.


Patty mourning the lose of her new boots.

We had to find something to plug the oil tank whether it was getting loaded onto Adam's truck or it was getting back on the road.
 After several of us went in seperately looking for something that might work to plug the tank to no avail, Jeff came out with something in his hand. 
Well.... it wasn't just "something".  It was a replacement oil cap, exactly the right size and we were all idiots.


Adam being sad because with Josh's bike still on the road, his bike has to stay in the back of his truck.  Poor little buddy.

Our journey continues...
                                









Into Arizona




We're in this incredible red rock canyon for less than 50 miles and then before we knew it......
 we were in filthy, stinky Nevada.


We wanted to get out of Nevada so fast that Patty had to get her Egg McMuffin to go.


Our last rest before California



California here we come!


Part 3 coming soon!

nothing to do but sit here and grovel with why im laid up. and i have zero idea why there is an underline under all the text.  dont care enough to look around.  the top photo is bill kahn, from 2001.  my first trip to the redwoods.  the one under it was the most recent trip to the same spot.  last summer with 30 other like minded folks.  motorbikes, camping and a damn fine time.  i said same spot but,,, well, its in the same park, just a few miles from one another.  even though ive sat on my ass for almost 3 months now, doing fairly alright because i know things should go back to normal.  hopefully.  who knows how many years this wreck took off of my upright life.  money wouldnt make it any better, it would just tremedously soften the blow.  if i could buy a house with some settlement money, god damn that would be nice.     instead, im sitting here with my withering muscles, losing 2 pounds a week.  ive got an exercise bike that ive been riding in the living room to try and get some muscle back in my legs, but its still too early to tell if its gonna help.  with m.s. you have a hard time gaining muscle because your current muscles get beat to death before youre able to to work them hard enough to gain/build muscle.  so depending on that amazing situation, there is potential i will never walk again.  at 33, thats not an easy one to swallow.   keepin my head up, but hours of boredom plague my head.  getting out of the house isnt enough.  a normal life like i had the morning of march 2nd would more than mend it.  out of touch with reality is a son of a bitch.  
so we will see about my job and vacation time, but my main goal for this summer is to be better than last summer and even though its off to one hell of a start, there is still potential after all.  cant wait to get back on the road under my own control and power. 
8 more days.
