I'm really sad this blog is ending. It's been one of my favorites for a long time. Is there any reason why?

First off thanks for the love and support. There are several reasons for stopping the blog. Its time being the simple answer.

We dont really have the resources to continue. Also our computer is combersome.(We carry 12 lbs of gear, 10 yr old mac book pro,key board,mouse,batterys,cables,ect) Its really crazy. about a qrtr of the gear we carry is just the Computer and stuff to make the blog. In this day and age of tablets and iphones its a lil frustrating.

 Negativity. We do this cause its/was fun. No other reason. Well it stopped being fun when people send me letters hoping my birds get killed.Who has the time to do that? Or that I’m a big loser cause i smoke cannabis.

And Finally we have always wanted to end this blog on our terms. Not when something happened to us,and before Tumblr implodes by being bought by Yahoo(this is already happening)

We are still doing us. Don’t worry about that,just not sharing it with the world.

 We will be retreating away from internet and social media(Popi does not even have a cell phone). And living our lives. If you see us on the bike,be sure to say hi. 

 Thank you all for the kindness and love. P.D.Bird

“KTHXBAI” ---- WOAH WOAH WOAH. You're not giving up on this blog, are you? D: You have inspired so many people with this tumblr to enjoy nature, do biking tours, and most of all, to live side by side with birds instead of having them just as pets! You still have tons more people's lives to touch. Don't leave!

Thank you for the love and support.

Our situation with the spoke.

 So being on a shoestring budget,we had left us 20 bucks cash in case of events like this came up on our way to points south(LA). We carry and cook most all our food on the trips like this and its the only way we can travel so cheaply. So after biking all the way to town we realized that we had lost the freakin 20 bucks.

 SO….We rode around with 70 cents looking for a shop that would sell us the spoke and allow Popi to use the proper tool to get the cassette off the wheel. There is no bike kitchen or church in Monterey and the closet thing to it, Mike at Green pedal couriers did not have the tool.

 …..But he did turn on to a bike shop that might be able to help. He said that these two guys who had worked at another bike shop togther for years had struck out and opened their own business together and that they were hella treal. 

 So we rode over to see if they could let Popi use the tool.

Just when we are ready to ride south some more we broke a spoke...

This would not have been such a a big deal if it had not been on the cassette side of the back wheel. The closest place to the south that we can get this fixed is in Moro bay and thats very far. So we must bike north again to fix bike.

 We are so ready to continue on the adventure south,but this has to be fixed before we can carry on.

 So we rode back to Monterey.
