Facebook memories reminding me of the time in 2010 when I took a picture of myself from an airsoft event and made it into a digital doodle.

Without a face, the doodle gives off resigned vibes, honestly.

USA 7.9.23: Westküste - ich bin noch am Hadern

Worums geht: Kleine Träumerei über reizlose Landschaften.

Ich weiß nicht, wieso. Doch ich wandere an diesem wettertechnisch perfekten Abend - leichte Brise, Sonnenschein, kaum Menschen unterwegs - bei Fort Bragg die Klippen entlang, höre die Seemöwen schreien und und die Seelöwen grunzen, die Erde unter den Sohlen ist sandig aber einfach zu begehen - und ich bin etwas gelangweilt. Ich habe eine These dazu.

Vielleicht sind es die Bauchschmerzen von dem ungewohnt vielen Zucker, den ich in den letzten 48h schon eingenommen habe, und deswegen kann ich die gefällige Schönheit der Landschaft nicht wertschätzen. Ich dürfte auch NICHT gelangweilt sein, denn die Klippen und das savannenartige Gras erinnern mich an den geliebten Nordwesten Irlands und die im Dunst der Meeresluft liegenden, unwirklich erscheinenden Buchten am Horizont an Hawaii. Aber dieses Stück Westküste macht so gar nichts mit mir. Liegt es an den reichen Senioren mit ihren übergewichtigen Hunden, die hier entlangspazieren und so alle Magie zunichtemachen könnten?

Fehlt mir die Geschichte?

Ja, das muss es sein. Ich weiß ja gar nichts über diesen Ortm bis auf dass scharenweise RentnerInnen Fahrrad fahren. Es muss hier etwas passiert sein, warum sonst der martialische Name? Mendocino... Moment, da war doch was mit Hollywood und so. Muss ich morgen mal genauer unter die Lupe nehmen, eine kleine Tagestour in den Nachbarort unternehmen.

Vorhin hat mich ein Vogel angekackt. Muss das Karma sein. Oder Glück. Ich sollte dringend ins Museum, bevor ich hier mit meiner Unreflektiertheit böse Kommentare heraufbeschwöre. (Nächste Folge: Ich bin im Museum und lerne Dinge über Mendocino - zum Lesen hier klicken)

PS: Immerhin, ich rettete heute gestrandeten Quallen (vermutlich) das schleimige Leben, war in einem unheimlichen Wald, der an P Jacksons Mordor erinnerte und lachte über die Felsen im Meer, die zum Teil vollgekackt waren (ein bissl wie ich), wie eine Sahnehaube sah das aus. Die Vögel suchen sich ihre Versammlungsorte wohl ganz gezielt aus.

Hello again, your Mendo invite had me smiling, wish I could join you! Maybe someday! Mendocino has become gentrified over the years, but it's a special place and once you get there you'll know what I mean. Try to travel during the daytime because the fog will come in and it gets heavy on those windy roads. Other option take HWY 1 but that'll take you forever to get up there from south to north. Check out Sea Horse, Gualala too, one of many coast towns that way...Happy travels!

I will! For sure. I hate how gentrified the funky little towns here have been or are becoming. I prefer old school CA towns. I’m keeping a list of places you’re mentioning. Thank you. I’m from SoCal so didn’t spend a lot of time in that area.

Eta..I have camped there before lol just realized it

And I loved it. Russian Gulch SP and another one in the redwoods but that was 6 years ago…I need to go again cuz it was part of a road trip so just one nighters. I L❤️VED it.

I took this photo during a camping trip in Mendocino's Hendy Woods State Park over winter break. I highly recommend laying head to the base of a redwood to get a view like the one above the next time you are around some --- nothing else quite gives you the same appreciation for their size as the tallest species of tree in the world. Looking up at the canopy I was struck with their size, lifespan, strength, beauty, and protection.

"The construction of screen time as the moral evil responsible for this fall figures screen time and offline time as two sharply distinct and yet internally homogeneous categories, bound in direct opposition to one another (screen time is passive and introverted; offline time is active and social).

The absence of analysis about what exactly we are doing online or offline — as well as the ways that screens and “real life” blur together — lend this discussion an almost magical quality:

It is as if the mere presence of a screen becomes a kind of radiation, triggering irreparable mutations that lessen our humanity.

Like earlier anti-television campaigns, within contemporary “digital detox” movements the toxicity of screen time and the detoxifying benefits of the offline are conceived in terms of both moral and physical health. Theodora Sutton — whose research looks at “Camp Grounded,” a digital detox retreat that takes place in the Mendocino forest — has written about the way such retreats invoke a parallel between technology and food.

“Consuming” digital content becomes equivalent to other forms of addictive, harmful consumption (alcohol, junk food) while the face-to-face encounters that take place in the “offline” are compared to a nutritious snack.

Before the internet, escaping to the wilderness was touted for the health benefits of clean air, clean water, an absence of chemicals and smog — qualities that, in restoring the body, would supposedly also restore the soul to its purest state. Now, the abstract category of technology — metonymically represented by the more tangible substances of screen light and digital noise — is frequently added to the list of bodily harms to which wilderness offers a remedy. This sets up the assumption that a healthy relationship with the digital (short of total disconnect) looks like retreat and re-immersion, or detox and retox; a pattern that has its origins in the idea of wilderness."

The Atlas Wire

Premiere Edition — June/July 2023

Dexter Harris of MMM just became a grandfather for the first time. Welcome Ka’harri, born June 5, 2023.

Doug Samuel just bought his first house. He says “This place is amazing, part of Ottawa but with such a huge back yard it feels like its in the country.” It’s a 300m (900ft) walk to the green belt from where he can trail run or cross country ski all day and still not get to the end of it. “I Already met one of the neighbors, and they're great. I take possession July 4th, even though I'm Canadian.” we say… LOL, and kudos.

2022 Wordle

Remote Year, Cape Town, Mexico City, Oaxaca, Taiwanese guy, boss leaving, job search stress and anxiety, great job bad career, best Thailand trip with CH, best australia trip with MK, Covid, flu, sister moving to east coast, niece and nephew fun, Botswana epic, solo central California trip, was sick a lot, missed GDC, cough cough cough, San Miguel de Allende, Sabrina and GT, Mendocino camping, wisteria house, CC coworker who left but is amazing, lots of Mexico, Etereo, company merger, rented out Sac house, no more drives to Sacramento, PODCASTS, Guo Pei, Joan Mitchell, LA

Overall this year will not be missed. One thing I should worry about is I was sick a lot this year, more than I ever have been. It’s hindered a lot of things around work. My career hasn’t been so amazing either - every 1-2 years I get anxiety about my next step and it’s so frustrating.

My mind grew a lot however. I can see the cards people are holding, and most of the time they are not as good as the individual would like you to think they are. I figured out that people I thought were smart were actually just confident, and that being smart and being confident are not the same thing. My favorite example is one person who just repeats what smart ppl say so that person can ingest some of that halo effect of sounding smart (but isn’t actually)

Might be a byproduct of me getting older, but “I realize I am way doper than other people” is a big resounding realization for me. The world does not hold itself to high moral standards as I wish. But the other realization I had was that everyone around me can stoop low, but I will continue to hold myself to taking the high road.

Final Thoughts

A bit hard to believe I'm done already, but when I think back to riding in Washington or even Oregon, it does feel like a while ago now. Six weeks is a good chunk of time.

All in all, a wonderful trip. Lots of beautiful places I got to explore and I met loads of great people - from the dozens of other bike tourers to inquisitive strangers asking about the trip, and helpful locals who assisted with directions or, even in the case of Layne and Kay, offered their place for me to stay.

My cross-Canada tour is the logical comparison for me. This trip was certainly less remote-feeling. I was never far from a shop or restaurant, or even just people to ask for help if I needed any (fortunately did not). Washington state was the most difficult in that regard, long stretches without coming across much of anything. That felt similar to a number of sections on my cross-Canada trip.

In some sense, it almost felt too busy at times. I was always seeking out what might be suitable side ride roads to get some more quiet riding. I'm glad I went in a shoulder season, I think the amount of traffic and general busy-ness of the summer would have gotten to me. Central and Southern California have been particularly full of people and traffic, though I did anticipate that somewhat.

The two cycling highlights for me would be the redwoods - notably the dirt backroad out of Jedediah Smith State Park Campground and the Newton B Drury Parkway with the 10km+ stretch of gentle downhill through the redwoods - and Big Sur. There were also lots of little moments that stood out, too. The first glimpse of the coast at Ruby Beach in Washington, crossing into Astoria over the Astoria-Megler Bridge, climbing up Leggitt Hill through the windy forest road and descending back down to the coast, and many more that would take too long to type out.

The fog in Oregon and Northern California was unfortunate. I was getting pretty frustrated by it at one point as it felt like day after day I just wasn't seeing anything. The Mendocino coast in particular was no fun with the fog. That also may have been the most physically challenging stretch, too, with the endless short ups and downs.

I had read a decent amount about cycling the Pacific coast before I left. Some people recommend skipping Washington and starting in Oregon, others suggest stopping just after Big Sur in San Luis Obispo as the riding afterwards is not ideal. I'm very glad I did the route I took. Washington, though not super exciting, had its moments that I really enjoyed. A couple beautiful campgrounds (Fairholme at Crescent Lake, Willaby at Lake Quinault, and Cale Disappointments were standouts), and it reminded me the most of my cross Canada trip.

Oregon overall was great. Lots of interesting little towns, a bit more 'rustic' at times, and generally terrific camping. I really enjoyed Astoria and the halfday I spent there, and the day to Nehalem out of Astoria and through Cannon Beach was one of my favourite days of the trip.

California has been the most diverse, and it's incredible to see how much one state has to offer even just sticking to the coast. The difference between northern and southern California is pretty stark. And I finally had a good stretch of sun and warm weather once I hit Big Sur.

The weather was colder for most of the trip than I expected. And it continued to get colder - generally - as I moved south until Big Sur. I was always plenty warm when sleeping, though there were a number of days where I had on almost all my layers when cycling. The daylight situation was also a drag. By the time I hit San Diego, the sun was setting just after 6pm. That meant lots of early nights into the tent. On the plus side, bugs were nearly a non-issue.

I didn't have any mechanical issues. Other than my saddle falling apart (which it was before the trip) the bike is still in great shape. I'll likely be getting some new panniers if I do another trip, maybe slightly larger ones. The handlebar bag I got new this year worked great and I was happy to have it.

My body held up OK for the most part. I had a scare on the very first day when the back of my right knee started to hurt. I had something similar happen a couple years ago on a short overnight bike trip to Vancouver Island, and it took a few weeks to heal. I think I may have just been a bit dehydrated, though, as the next day it felt better and didn't act up again. My hamstrings were pretty tight each morning for the first maybe four weeks. They'd be sore as I started to cycle, then after about 15 minutes they'd be warmed up and felt fine. I'm not sure exactly where, but that tightness did go away entirely sometime after San Francisco. I also tweaked my neck early on, and that was pretty rough at times. Off the bike it was mostly fine but on the bike it would get very stiff after about 30mins, and I had difficulty turning my head to the left. If I got off the back, the tightness would go away (though I would get a pain occasionally off the bike, too). That also has seemed to mostly clear up. I'd still get a bit of tightness while riding towards the end, but it felt very minor.

And most importantly, the best ice cream I had was a marionberry-lemon cone at a place in San Luis Obispo and Tillamook's Mudslide flavour.

As much as I've enjoyed the trip, I'm also glad to be done. I tend to feel that whenever I travel and I'm near the end. There is a comforting feeling for me getting back to my own place, bed, bathroom, kitchen that can't be found when on the go. I'm sure that won't last too long, though, and I'll be looking for the next adventure before long!
