Description
Some five years ago I told Andy of my dream to bicycle "around the world" for two years. I think the idea came to me after an especially long and rewarding bike ride and I was still probably high on endorphins. Even so the idea immediately struck a chord with Andrew who most vigorously advocated it.
Despite his enthusiasm, he never really believed that I would give up career and comfort to do it. I never doubted my resolve, except when cashing big Silicon Valley paychecks. So finally I disfigured myself in order to make sure I didn’t forget the promise. (Years ago I tattooed four geckos on my upper left arm, two to represent my years in the states getting ready for the trip, and two to represent the two years on the road.)
O.K. so we went a little over budget on the time in the States getting ready, it had been nearly three years. In the back of my mind I hope we go overboard on the trip as well. We should have started in 1996 in May. But the delay gave Andrew the time to make a baby with a friend in NYC. My accomplishments were far less significant, but I did find a good juncture at which to end my long and sometimes rewarding career.
