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!
Day 50 – 40 Miles
Grenada, MS to Enid, MS Total Miles: 2711 I awoke this morning at 7 feeling pretty crummy, my legs were sore and stiff and I had no desire to get on my bike whatsoever. Last night I had decided to pedal another 70 miles towards Arkansas and get a cheap motel and a good nights […]
Day 49 – 65 Miles
Houston, MS to Grenada, MS Total Miles: 2670 Last night after I scoured myself looking for any hidden ticks I laid down in my tent to get some reading done. Not even 5 minutes later I feel this creepy, crawly sensation on my foot and look down to see a tiny little tick walking up […]
