I have now been home for two weeks. I'm glad to be back. Everyone has asked if slowing down has been a tough transition, but it hasn't. Helping my dad move, and going through what little I left at my mom's (now relocated) house has meant that I haven't really "slowed down." As you can see above, I've been in the mountains, I've watched some baseball (yep, still boring), and I've thrown things away. I'm still riding the motorcycle almost everyday and I'm proud to say that it made 160.8 hp on the dynamometer last week at 5280 feet (1609 meters). It's still working apparently. I am ecstatic to be back in Colorado, Bill and I are planning our trip across the Continental Divide on our way from Eldora to Grand Lake. I've been riding my bicycle almost everyday and I am getting ready to move to London in the fall. But most importantly, I'm looking for a job. I will be keeping this blog up through the summer and definitely into the fall. Keep watching!
This blog began as a way to track my round-the-world motorcycle ride on my 2002 Kawasaki ZX-12R. After 40,000 miles I am home and am moving to London for graduate work. Though my life may not be quite as exciting in the next couple of years, I will continue to document my daily adventures here. Does the "5 pairs" philosophy still apply? Of course. I'm moving to the UK with nothing but a backpack (and 5 pairs of underwear).
