Eric Sheets (official thread)

[schwab]

Eric Sheets is walking from Rockford, Ohio to Seattle, Washington. Barefoot. With a donkey. And a stray dog. To meet Bill Gates. AWESOME

Link to his website.

The story is in this video, check this out... you've never seen this. VW County!

What the hell!

Is he getting paid for doing this? Is the dude dumber than Forest Gump?

 

[BrutusBobcat]

If you read his blog, you'll see that he's had a much more rewarding year than anyone is ever going to have sitting in a cubicle and collecting a paycheck.

Whether he meets Gates or not, he's got quite a story to tell.

This guy I actually do know. Chip Albright is riding his bike. 16,000 miles. From the southern most tip of South America (Ushuaia, Argentina) to Alaska. This is going to be quite a different story at the end than the Sheets story. Both very interesting, but very different.

I have a couple different links here, the first one I will link to his first journal, back in February, and then I will link to the VW paper where you can read the rest of his entries. I stopped short of giving him his own thread, but I still might :tongue2:

Can't wait to talk to Chip when this is over... crazy stuff
