Day 1 52miles Wayne, IL - Morris

I thought I'd have nothing to write about for day one. Boy, was i wrong. Because of some issues with the bike i actually left to start this tour today instead of on April 26th. I'm in my tent in Morris IL at my first free (/totally illegal) campsite as i write this. I have a lot to say but I'll be breif cuz I'm tired.

I've read some books on how other people have biked or hiked across the US and we're in awe of how nice and generous fills were. In fact, that was my experience with my first and only bike tour i did a couple years ago. This time, not so much. At least not day one. So far my guitar got clipped my the mirror of a pickup truck (so that's gone), i was shoved off my bike, had someone pretend they were going to run me over, got garbage thrown at me and also got called an asshole. Yep, it's been a full day. Ugh.. I no it'll get better though.

Anyway, I'm including a pic of my campsite for those who were envious of what I'm doing. Maybe you still are, maybe not. Also for those who think I'm crazy so you can rest asure you were right. Ha..

OK, that's it for now.
​Be kind..

That was why I was worried for you. I had someone cross middle line just to zoom near me. Lots on nut cases. I gave the finger that day.
Anyway another little ditty to stick in your brain. Happy trails to you, until we meet again. ....
Take real good care,
Jan
