Wow!!!! What a ride/trip. Thanks for posting the video. Those bikes must have some really good rubber under them.

Thanks Fali I've really enjoyed seeing your adventure.

Waiting to board my final flight home out of Boston. All is well after a one armed luggage ordeal at customs. I am grateful for a couple of helping hands who stepped up.

Glad you're almost home Danny and have managed so far!! I can't imagine sitting in a plane seat with your injuries. *shudder
Nothing can compete with that rough 4 hours to the hospital in the truck not knowing the full extent of the damage.
Thanks for the concern though, Ash.

I wasn't the only casualty that day....Tashi's bike needed to be swapped due to many broken teeth on his sprockets.

Welcome home George. I 've been in the states (Atlanta) almost 20 hours catching up on things :)
Heading to Little Rock for a National Square Dance convention. While there, I hope to get the collar bone set by an orthopedic surgeon. It is sticking out and hurts quite a bit.
If anyone knows of a good orthopedic surgeon in or near Little Rock, please let me know.

Fali, thanks for asking me to come along on this spectacular adventure.

Enjoyed the company Danny and would do it again. I was worried you were being a little too active too early in the game and travelling most likely didn't help the bone set as well as it could. 20 hrs in Atlanta probably broke loose any mending that had taken place ;). Good luck with it and let me know how it turns out. I'm riding down to Dehra to complete my dental work. See you guys around.

Ugh! Not enuff sleep. Trees are trimmed, mostly unpacked, Jury Duty questionnaire answered, appointment with broker set, mail gone thru and mostly tossed. Tomorrow, clean the patios and spray for bugs and pack for Saturday.

On the jury duty, asked to be excused 'til 7/17. We'll see.

Still haven't cracked the camera.
