Golden City, MO to Middle of Nowhere, KS Total Miles: 3154 I woke up this morning at 6:00 with the intention of getting an early start to try and put some miles in before the forecasted winds began to pick up. Elijah must have had the same idea as me because he was up and […]

Day 57 – 56 Miles
Springfield, MO, Golden City, MO Total Miles: 3093 Last night was excellent! I got to hang out by the pool, unashamedly ate a whole pizza and some wings, drank few cold beers and laid out under the stars before bed. If every day could end this good I’d probably cycle forever. This morning I woke […]
Day 56 – 69 Miles
Mountain Grove, MO to Springfield, MO Total Miles: 3037!!! Nothing really interesting happened last night except that it rained and I failed to put the cover on my bike seat. It’s leather and now that I have it broken in it’s the most comfortable thing in the world, but being that it is made out […]
Day 55 – 54 Miles
West Plains, MO to Mountain Grove, MO Total Miles: 2968 Today starts off, per usual, with a little bit about last night. I’ve been considering writing my daily blog post a little later in the evening, like after dinner or something, so that I don’t always have to include what happened the night before. But, […]
Day 54 – 42 Miles
Hardy, AR to West Plains, MO Total Miles: 2912 Let’s start off today with a little bit about last night. First off, the cheeseburger I was recommended was amazing but it definitely was not the Biggest, Baddest Cheeseburger in Town. That prize went to the aptly named “Baddest Cheeseburger in Town” and it weighed in […]
Day 53 – 67 Miles
Jonesboro, AR to Hardy, AR Total Miles: 2870 Yesterday’s apocalyptic thunderstorm left my tent pretty wet, nothing on the inside but I was forced to roll it away wet which I do not particularly like to do. I was bestowed a small blessing today from the One True Turtle, may his Shell ever harden, the […]
Day 52 – 0 Miles
God awful wind and rain when I woke up. A mildly pleasant mid morning. Severe thunderstorm warnings with a dash of tornado warning in the late afternoon. Yeah, I decided to stay put today. I’m currently laying on my bed getting blasted by wind and rain, I’m very pleased with my tent’s performance though. This […]
Day 51 – 92 Miles
Editors note: I decided to start my day count where I left off. I know I didn’t do that while I took 6 days off in Florida and, as my sister pointed out, I know my day counts aren’t all that accurate anyways. Whatever. Subtract 6, carry the 2, divide by the square root of […]
Day (To Be Continued)
I’m going on a hiatus from cycling until the 21st of June. Everything’s fine so please don’t worry, I’m taking a trip to New York then to miami to soak up the sun for a week. May the One True Turtle bless you all. Stay tuned for the next edition of James and his Bike!
