Welcome back!!! For some reason I thought you were going to Italy, not across the US. Did you at least have pizza at some point?
That bike is wild. Did he use a ladder???

LOL - you had a good reason to think that we were off to Italy because well thats what we had planned. Unfortunately the flight times didn't work too well for us and it looked like we would have to come home from Spain. It all seemed a little hard with three kids in tow so we decided to drive across the US and wander where the inclination took us.

This guy was amazing. He just did the old style mounting technique you know with the left leg on the pedal and then pushed along with the right and then just sort of stood up on the left pedal and over went the other leg.The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

No Im afraid Nina the bikes stayed at home. With five of us we had more than enough junk to haul from place to place. We really like stopping at places along the way and Im always nervous about leaving my bike in or on top of the car at tourist type spots.
Here are a couple of other shots from our trip. We took a stack but I wont bore you to death.
From left to right top to bottom:
Portland Head Maine
Tall ships Newport Rhode Island
Central Park New York City
Union Station Hotel Nashville Tennessee
We passed through 27 states on our cross country and back road trip.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
