High Rider

Last summer, I noticed this guy at a local thrift store. I saw him struggling with trying to get a TV on a contraption he tried to hook to his bicycle to take it home. After watching for a couple of minutes with his struggle, I went over to him and asked if I could help. He then told me where his house was and said that he would meet me there, that it would take him about 15 minutes to get there. I put the TV in the back of my car, called Carl and said if I am not home in about an hour.....I'll be somewhere on Monkey Road...LOL

I really didn't think this guy was a threat, but to be on the safe side.......

Anyway, I met him at the entrance to the little lane where his trailer was parked and he thanked me profusely and went onto to tell me of the mission of his life with God and some of his travels on his bike. Interesting man.
he said that he rode his bike all the way to Panama and back and was trying to rig up something again to go back, but with pulling his kayak on the back of his bike.
INTERESTING....anyway, now I see him all over the place riding around. I have even seen him 15 miles from town, so he does get his exercise.

Wow that IS one high rider! Wonderful and brave of you to offer him a ride! I wish I was as willing to take pictures of interesting things like you do. The girls and I were sitting in the car waiting on food from the all famous BBQ Pit in Warren the other day when we saw another car waiting as well. The back window was busted out and a full sized dog had half his body out the back. When the car drove out, the dog got completely out of the car and on top of the trunk as the car headed out of town...standing. Amazing sight but I was too embarrassed to take a picture. Never know though; around these parts someone I know was probably related to the people.
