Pedicab Man

People want to know if our bicycle rides across country are done to raise money for a charity. Some seem disappointed that we just ride cause we like to ride and don't have lofty goals to help mankind. They over look the fact that everywhere we go there is an increase in monetary velocity as we spend money on motels, meals, bicycle parts and more meals. In turn, the folks we spend money with spend money with other folks. Not to mention the fact that a higher and higher percentage of this money ends up in the government redistribution system allowing more and more bureaucrats to live the good life. So in a round about way we contribute to a charity which provides meaningless employment to a lot of people who otherwise might have to be productive.
