The People
We often get asked, what is the best part of bicycle touring. The answer is the people we meet. On this trip, we met lots of people from local communities, we crossed paths with other cyclists, saw a few friends, and some family. Several people stopped to give us water, fruits and vegetables, advice on the roads ahead, a few said prayers for us, and some just wanted to talk. Several folks were interested in doing trips of their own. They typically had lots of questions about our route, how long we had been on the road, the types of weather we encountered, and how much weight we were carrying. All of these people impacted our trip with their kindness, generosity, and support. They restored our faith in humanity and reminded us of how great our country is. The photos below are a small representation of the wonderful people we came across. Until next time….
