I am signed up for your email thingim going from St. Charles Missouri to Colorado Springs Colorado. It's going to be about 840 miles to there. I think this will be fun but difficult since I haven't done it before. If you've ever road in this part of Missouri its nice there is a trail strait through Missouri meant for bikers. It's a really nice trail and when I get to Colorado it will be beautiful there. In planing my firat bike tour for this coming May.

Living in a marine wonderland I often spent weekends on the seas-Lake Ponchartrain, IntraCoastal Canal, Gulf of Mexico etc. Your pointers apply to that sort of trekking as well. Although , drinking water, knowing how to read the environment, and (preventive) mainenance are absolutely crucial for survival. By a boat being a much smaller environ and every move any body makes can be life threatening, I've come to realize that our sport offers joys that are hard to describe BUT picking the wrong company can make a wonderful thing awful. Be careful and you and your company will be rewarded with great life time memories. I owned a 20′ 150 hp sport pleasure boats for years.
