Headwind 2011

This is a link to two people that we met on the beach a few weeks ago.  Headwind 2011

They are recent college graduates that could not find jobs, so they decided to plan a trip to ride their bikes across the country.  I met them one Sunday morning before the sun rose over the ocean.  

Picture this, there were two people asleep on the beach in full on sleeping bags, they had their bikes near them loaded down with saddles bags.  I went out to surf but could not help but wonder who these people on the beach were.  When the riders woke up, they put their rear tires in the Atlantic and snapped a picture.  Their goal is to ride all the way to the Pacific and snap another photo with the front tires of their bikes in the water. 

I found these two spirits very up-lifting.  I always like to think about what you really need to survive.  With this kind of trip they certainly will discover what necessity is.
