Chapter Leader:

I retired from the data processing field in order to pursue my outdoor interests while my body and mind (hmmm ... debatable) still function. In addition to riding, I enjoy hiking, backpacking, jogging and good food, not necessarily in that order. I purchased my New World Tourist in 2004 and, with a fellow "Fridayian", did a 5-day tour with trailers in tow through parts of New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Prior to becoming a Friday owner, I toured Vermont, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, New Mexico, Colorado and Florida ... some on a bicycle!
