HandlingByJebus posted:He didn't. Pretty close, he got there on his packed-up bike with his packed-up backpack, but 15 minutes late (I have a photo from Dave at about 8:30 last night of him there on his bike - it was unstable with all of the load on it) . There's a 9AM he can catch with a change fee he can cover. I gather he's slept near the bus station with his camping gear. drat keep us updated and let us know what feedback extra you have to pay if it gets him on the bus

Do you need a room tonight? There is a cheap Smoking room at knights inn at North Platte but do t k ow how it would work if I booked for you would t you need a credit card for incidentals or something? Edit: in contact with 14 he is going to walk to the hotel and see if I will be allowed to book him a room through the app and my account everdave fucked around with this message at 00:17 on Sep 6, 2017 |

He is staying at the Knights Inn tonight if that has any relevance to plans

I just heard from him he said he got a lot of rest and took many showers at the hotel last night. Anyone who gets an update on bike/luggage/travel let us know

Well we need to come up with a plan b. I covered a hotel room last night, I wish I could just put him up indefinitely but I can't. I could probably justify another night if anyone wanted to chip in $30-40

Man gently caress greyhound. 14 says he is walking I told him to tell me if he needs help/lodging. I don't think we should entertain the thought of buying a $600 bike right now. Let's tweet at greyhound maybe reach out try to get it linked from somewhere with a following? I've got like 3 people who have offered to chip in on hotel rooms for now.

14 fed some show horses in exchange for a ride he is mobile right now. Depending on his situation tonight I may get him another hotel room. PM me if interested in helping and I will contact those who have already messaged me if this ends up happening.

Dave is laying by I-30 halfway between Paxton and Roscoe. NM can you contact anyone on the bike site? I honestly don't know what to do right now. If he can get to Oga I can get him a room and at least he will be by a Greyhound station. Anyone have any ideas? 14 has hit the wall he is about giving up.

UPDATE: 14 is getting a ride to Oga from the Highway Patrol (as a free man, or so I assume) I will look into getting him a hotel room tonight, though I think they are more pricey here than in the other two towns. Anyone have a plan or any suggestions on what we do after that?

# ¿ Sep 7, 2017 21:31 |

Well 14 is now telling me of some wild Datura he has found and I am asking him kindly not to experiment with crazy psychoactive drugs he found on the side of the road

nm posted:Fwiw, rural cops giving people rides on the side of the road is pretty common. I think I've hitched 2 cop rides myself. he is en route to Oga, I have a line on a hotel tonight if it works out, and then if he needs to be in town a few days it would be a great help if he could reach out to those contacts

14 is in Oga I will probably get him a room at the Travelodge tonight to let him rest and clean up, hopefully we can come up with a plan for beyond tomorrow... Anyone who can help (and I don't mean just money, I mean planning and contacting people and greyhound and coordinating) please get in touch he is safe for now and heading to the hotel to see if I can get him a room

Bike and supplies are not at Oga "station" and they have no idea about it. They said they can call him if it shows up. He said he can get on a bus tonight at 10:15 (going where I don't know) or I offered to get him a hotel room tonight. He's going to Walmart to get something to eat

Thoughts on a pop-up camper for 14 in Valentine? Helpful?

I think we're going to try to get one today tontow to 14 and then Valentine (and by we I mean Tremek doing all the work)

Tremek posted:On track for a 3:30 meeting with a guy that has what looks to be a pretty nice Coleman. 2x4s can stand in place of the cable system until Dave can figure out how to repair, seems like more of an inconvenience than a case of livable or not. Knowing how crappy weather can get on the Plains in October and beyond, I feel pretty strongly that this is a better solution than a tent. Good luck my man!

Yes, I will post and confirm about the camper, I told Tremek I would promise half even if we didn't get any goons throwing in (which I know we will). PM me if you want to help. And give a huge shout out to Tremek who is driving to Nebraska to pick up 14 and carry him on to Valha...I mean Valentine
