The "Sponsors"

Nothing is accomplished alone. Especially packing up all your stuff and heading out on a bike, while still trying to have one foot in the real world. So this post is to try and remember all the generosity that has "possibilitated" this trip, ranging from small acts, random or planned, to larger generosities. This is really for my sake, so you might find it boring, although I think it illustrates something about people. If you're not on this list and you think you should be (and you're one of the dozen people that read this blog), by all means let me know. Memory can be a blurry beast some times. This doesn't even begin to mention all the people who provide encouragement, love and moral support, perhaps even more valuable and appreciated.
