In other words.....if you are gonna be an inconsiderate self centered prick....you had better be courteous about it!
Exactly, besides you’re a big scary-looking sorta-Native, who’s gonna dump coal on you?
Guys here talking about how unsafe it is to confront coal dumpers, yet those same guys dump coal on ‘bangers blasting ghetto music. Most guys on bicycles are too smart to escalate, but who is more likely to be armed and dumb enough to wanna cap yer a$$ than a carload of ‘bangers?
Along the same lines, i’m wondering if the coal dump pu$$ies out there usually dump on carloads of Indians.

Sorry. Birdwatcher, but as a someone following your posts from the sidelines, compared to your previous two trips, to me, this trip is sounding more and more like it was a spur-of-the-moment impulse that's turned into a confused sounding -- maybe this - maybe that -- unsure wandering around.
But, as always, YMMV...
Well I did get to the NM State Line, and I woulda been somewhere on the Plains headed north right now “but noooo” people said, “help your friend” people said.
So here I is working backwards, five days lost and 400 miles added at the other end to get home. Dunno how far I’ll get. Flicker is getting quirky, but when I do take the day to post pics from up here you’ll see it doesn’t really matter how far I get, it’s awesome up here 😎

The late Col. Cooper on the topic of carjacking said “a car ain’t worth your life, but your dignity is”.
Lots of people have guns.
No worries, deep well of tranquility here 😎
ah mike, i have been enjoying your trip however: I knew col cooper, in later years his eyes were kind of well, different. I am aware you have a little pistola, is it where you can get to it quickly? or deep buried in a pocket on the bike somewhere. Nobody ever said any thing about smoking indians, i like indians, like i actually grew up with apaches. They drive diesels too. as to the gang bangers, most i think realize they would be seriously out gunned by those driving those trucks. You have to assume in arizona anybody in a truck has serious firepower. ask about those gang bangers driving those little rice burners at full rpm with those cheesy noisy mufflers.
Birdie is no worse than the Amish, Hutterites, and Mennonites.
"flave" would be no different on roller blades.
Same Same for the cross country walkers/joggers/lawnmower riders honoring their murdered children, long lost cousins, and 'Murica.

Do you ever start daydreaming about being some old time Wild West gunslinger while the hot sun is beating down on you and your 10 speed?
Be honest.
Naah, I suck at fighting, I don’t like to hurt people. But a chicken$hit act of meanness from a Coal Dump Pu$$y like yerself, aimed at anyone used to piss me off, right now.
If you had any balls at all you would stop, but you won’t, because bad things could happen and you would have to meet the people you just smoked.
But now I’m a deep well of tranquility 😎
Satan is a formidable enemy, takes a man and has him act like a pu$$y AND feel good about.
To the original point; what I feel when I’m out there in the sun is “Holy Crap! I can actually do this!” Totally friggin’ awesome to cross a whole friggin’ continent under your own power. Somewhat close to how they did it in the old days, by their own sweat.

So the gist is, one only coal dumps on those one believes incapable of retaliation. How is that NOT an Uber Pu$$y act?
Sowing ill will which is gonna come back on someone, somewhere.
YMMV

All? Just one, and poorly executed at that. Taught me a valuable lesson......
Ohmmm..... Ohmmm..... Ohmmm.... Ohmmm....
Remember that when some guy coal dumps on your kid....

My son might be a dumb ass but he ain’t dumb ass enough to ride a bicycle on I-15.
Safest place there is around here, have you seen the backroads? Nother 30 miles and it’s backroads all the way to and through Yellowstone, ain’t looking forward to it.

If you die on this trip do I have your blessing to joke about it?
Of course
