Gregg Bleakney’s dream was to travel around America. He got the idea after he finished a long bike ride. His friend, Brooks Allen, also liked riding a bike.They talked and made a special plan traveling from the US to Argentina by bike. To pay for the trip, Gregg and Brooks worked to save money for a long time. When they were really on the road, they often camped and ate cheap food. In many places, local people let them have dinner in their homes.
On their way, there were deserts, rain-forests and mountains. They visited big cities and small villages. And they made many friends from all over the world. Two years later, Gregg got to Argentina in the end, but Brooks didn’t finish the trip with him because of something.
The trip taught the two men a lot about traveling. Here are some of Gregg’s ideas:A good plan is important. You have to make a good plan before you start your trip. It can help to keep you safe and healthy on your trip.
Travel light. You can’t take many things with you on your trip. Some important things are OK.
Be friendly to others. Gregg said, “No one wants to fight or do something bad to a nice man. When you are friendly enough to others, they will do the same.”
