Herrlichst. Schöne kleine Eis-Runde bei bestem Wetter und angenehmen Temperaturen durch die Lagune mit abschließendem Aperitivo und Blick auf die Adria. 😍

Noah ChinnMy first layover went a bit longer than I expected, but it gave me a chance to fix my bike and re-evaluate my approach.

May 11 – 15, 2000 – The First Layover - Noah Chinn Books
With my seat broken, I needed to figure out a fix to make sure it wouldn't happen again... like going down the side of the Rockies at nearly 100kph. That would be BAD. The satellite phone mentioned below was a long shot opportunity to beta-test something new on the market. See, unlike today, I couldn't
Day 3, 2000 - Disaster strikes when my seat breaks. You know, the thing that keeps me on my bike!

May 10, 2000 – Day 3 - Noah Chinn Books
The mix of bad and good luck continues. Oh, I should point out that the speeds my bike computer records (including the replacement one I get) should probably be taken with a grain of salt, even if the distances are accurate. May 10- Day 3 Wouldn't you know it. All last night it didn't rain
It's only day 2, and I get rained on so much I feel like quitting. Plus, I almost lost Mossfoot!

May 9, 2000 – Day 2 - Noah Chinn Books
It wasn't long before I felt like packing it in. It wouldn't have been the first time. I had tried biking from Toronto to Vancouver a year or two earlier, and gave up on the second day. That was on a cheap Canadian Tire bicycle, and what made me determined to get a recumbent later

Today's the big day! Jump in my time machine and travel back to May 8, 2000, when I start my cross-Canada odyssey!

May 8, 2000 – Departure Day - Noah Chinn Books
Well, today's the big day. Time to enter the time machine and travel back 25 years to Victoria, Canada, where I start my hundred-day-plus journey across the country! Just a heads up, I don't have an entry for every single day, sometimes I group a few days together if very little happens or if I'm
Our time machine back to 2000 continues. Departure Day is just 2 days away. These last couple of days were filled with dread at what was going to happen next... but only at night.

May 6, 2000 (2 Days to Departure) - Noah Chinn Books
This is when doubt was starting to gnaw at me, especially at night. The next entry will be May 8th, when I actually leave. A couple of things to mention. While I'm keeping the journal exactly as it was, the editor in me can't help but clean it up a little, at least in terms
The lead up for the big day continues. Obviously, there’s going to be some reflecting going on beforehand. Today and tomorrow's entries convey the warring sides of how I felt. Determination… and fear.

The lead up for the big day continues. Obviously, there's going to be some reflecting going on beforehand. Today and tomorrow's entries convey the two warring sides of how I felt before the big day. Determination... and fear. As for today's picture... those were taken at a mall's photo booth in Victoria on the day
While I didn't start my cross-Canada trip until May 8th, I did do some entries about my preparations. Let me introduce you to the computer I was using on my trip 25 years ago!

May 3, 2000 (5 days till departure) - Noah Chinn Books
I had planned on leaving May 1st, but various things got in the way, so it wouldn't be until May 8th that I left. However, I wrote a bit about how I was preparing in the meantime. Some clarifications: The "Psion" referred to was my Psion 5MX handheld computer. Oh, sure, we all got smartphones
