I made it back alive and what a trip it was! I don't have time to write much now, but I have plenty to say.
For now I'll just explain the change in the name of the blog.
As I rolled through the heavily forested area outside of the town of Big Sur, there was a road sign covered in paint, stickers, and marker. What caught my eye was that someone had drawn a bicycle on the sign, and once I looked closer there was a sticker that said "Ride a bicycle." That tickled me a bit and I kept looking. When I got a little closer I noticed that some one had written "Velo Tramp" on the sign near the bike and the sticker. The more I thought about it, the more appropriate it seemed. Velo is the French word for bicycle, and tramp- as in a traveler, drifter, or vagabond. When I got home yesterday, I felt compelled to change the name.
