FOR THE HEALTH OF IT

The journey of my life.

Name:
Location: Anytown, USA, United States

I am a daughter, sister, mother, grandmother, aunt, cousin, wife, daughter-in-law, lover, friend, and nurse. I have lived my life trying to please everyone. I'm not sure what would be left if those titles were to go away. About Ron: I am Candy's husband. My previous life before undertaking this trip was working in the paper manufacturing industry in the Pacific Northwest. I am taking this time off to have the adventure of my life, meet new people, get fit, discover our country on a more personal level, and accomplish something that I will always remember which is to circumnavigate the US on a HPV(Human Powered Vehicle). I am 52.

Daytona Speedway

Daytona Speedway is all set up with vendors of all sorts. International displayed their fancy trucks for hauling trailers, they are wonderful, back seat fold down for sleeping, there is a 14" TV screen, and lots of room. One of the trucks has a room behind the cab that can hold two motorcycles and then can pull the largest of travel trailers. I visited three trike conversion vendors and a side car vendor. If I keep falling down I will need to change what I ride and now I know my options. Ron was a good shopper today, when he got bored he would sit in the shade and wait for me to show up. He had his bike dyno tuned today, bought a new helmet and ignition switch. Yesterday he bought a special new headlight and new gloves.He told me that he needs to be nice since he lost his debit card and needs me to pay for the things he wants to buy. (I might not replace his card). I am having a great time. the temperature remains mild, great for walking and shopping, cooling off quickly when the sun goes down. I've noted more trailers hauling bikes today. A vendor mentioned they feel attendance is down this year as there are plenty of vacancies in motels, usually every room is booked. In the pine forest the underbrush is palm type growth. The grass is thick, lush, and spongy.
