The photos and story remind me of BSG's doll stories. I hope that they will meet, what a ride that will be.

*sniff* Today I left crazycanuck (good thing I don't have much clothing yet etc to pack
) on the next part of my journey. I met Trekhawk & will get to play in her garden for a while.
I think my next stop is Canberra & gee I sure hope it's warm over there! I need to get my share of sunshine before i head north

I can't believe I missed this also!
I would be more then happy to do the South Florida portion before or after she heads to central florida! And we even have a North Florida person on here. She can go all over the state!

Crazycanuck, since Maidei doesn't yet have a GPS tag attached, to track her mileage, could you estimate for us the total distance Maidei has travelled in your dirt ride with her, then with Trekhawk and now enroute to Canberra, Australia?
Would be a good idea at which stopping location, Maidei will recive her GPS tag? Maybe KnottedYet can let us know here.My Personal blog on cycling & other favourite passions.

How do you pronounce her name?
I love these pictures. This is so much fun. Is there a projected plan for the trip?
Don't we have someone in Indonesia? I'll pick Maidei up in San Diego and be her guide around town.

After a hard day on the trails with Crazycanuck I decided to kick back and relax today. I enjoyed a nice cuppa in Trekhawk's garden and a cruise down into the valley with Trekhawk and her dogs. Hey Fergus wait for me!
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

I had that same question when I first read what her name was. I had my laptop then and searched online and did find a site that had a recording that let you hear how Maidei was pronounced. I am on my desktop now and cannot find the site. But I remember it sounded out like May-Day, with the emphasis on the second syllable and the first syllable was said quicker, almost like M' day.

On another note: Trekhawk is that a cone on Fergus' head?!
