The last riding day was Friday, Tour Day 12. The tour has come to its riding end at Ashford, Connecticut. With Chirac’s [Ashford Motel Manager] assistance, I hope to pick up a Budget 10’ Rental Truck from Plainfield, Connecticut later today. Budget’s rates are substantially better than U-Haul’s.

I caught Davis at the Bath Bicycle Shop before he shipped my trailer. I’m have it shipped to the Ashford Motel. I also stopped a package that was to have been shipped from home. Now, I only have the items Gary is shipping. For costs and his time, they can be shipped to Fayetteville.

My planned departure is Tuesday after I receive my SPOT Batteries from Zeke and the trailer boxes from Davis.

So, this tour was from Bar Harbor, Maine to Ashford, Connecticut. Not nearly as far as I wanted, even after riding on my own. But far enough for Ashley Guy to obtain useful information for subsequent modifications to this quad design. Once those are made, I’ll strike out again to see how well they work. Thanks to Ashley for his support, both as the builder and his personal financing of much of this tour. Thanks to my BROL friends who also assisted financially. Without you, we would not have made it this far.

I hope I have brought you a little piece of the Northeast USA and one’s cyclist journey along the way. The people I met and their willingness to help where they could. I am blessed to have met them and graced with the protection they gave. This is an experience to treasure for the results are so positive. Thanks to all my readers for following along. Now, stay tuned for the Fargo mods.
