Research - Taking the Pulse of Mid-America

For the next few weeks I will be taking the pulse of mid-America from the vantage point of a bicycle.  There's no better way to meet people.  For some reason, people open up to cyclists and unburden themselves, knowing that the likelihood of meeting itinerant travellers again is remote.  It will be good to be on the road again.  

The trip starts in Washington DC and may go north to the environs of Pittsburgh.  From there, I have no idea where the trip will end up: Omaha, Chicago, Syracuse.  The idea is to "ride free" and let decisions about the day's travel be made on the momentum of the moment.  This is travel at its best. 

If the trip leads to insights about potential investments, that is well and good.  We'll see.  It's all about being open to chance.
