The US-stage of my traveling is coming to end. I have spent here 42 days, rode 13 000 km and ate a bucket of shrimps in chinese bars. I can resume this stage as so: it is worth of coming here at least once! The impression from country should be made without intermediary. It was sometimes interesting, sometimes boring, there was both fun and sadness. And it was really terrible to be taken over by a trailer!

One can speak hours about America or even more. As for me, I will attempt to put together a puzzle of my thoughts and impressions, digest it and set it up to the pages of my book. It will be more suitable. Moreover I had a number of adventures in this particularly boring in its predictability land. Tonight is the last night in the United states and I spend it in a tent at Houston outskirts. Tomorrow in the noon I will cross the border with a beautiful land of Mexico. See you there! And this is what happened in a previous week:

Wanna some ogange? Try my orange!

Where is Wally? i.e. where am I?

This is the mute answer for a request of a cup of coffee. Cups are on the bottom

This is Harold with his spouse. I stopped for a night at their house. They are very nice pair.

These are Harold’s toys.

Seeing off before going to Doug in Alabama

It’s hard to lose one’s way. But easy to get caused in these plates!

Meet Doug! First we have met in Vladivostok last year. It was one of Doug’s round-the-world tours that have become regular for him. Those who visit my website regularly might know this vivid and true biker.

With new tires!

Doug’s favorite helmet

Who is there? Changing fork liquid, rear tyre and motor oil. I always use Ipone. By bike likes it and it makes no difficulty to get it in the US.

At present time Doug is engrossed by building an endurable motorcycle out of Harley-Davidson Sportster to ride on it to Magadan neat year. He will visit Ukraine too. For those whom it may concern – you can meet him in Kiev in September.

One of NASA CPs. Almost at Doug’s backyard J almost means 20 kilometers further.
