There was much controversy over the donations. Did I really deserve it? Was I covering enough miles per day? Was my ride adventurous enough? Were my thumbs real or implants? Etc. etc. In fact, the "anti-Kaneman" thread swelled to be nearly as large as my actual ride report.

Since I had foolishly given out all my contact information I got constant emails and texts and an occasional phone call from people who disagreed with what I was doing.

The image I have in my head is that of thumbs with tits.

For those who know nothing about this, link us to the ride report or give us a summary. Sounds like a good story.

Also to the thread with the criticism. I wanna see which one I posted in.

Sounds like some people were jealous, and used that as an excuse to talk shit or threaten to call the IRS or something.

Donating some pocket change to someone doesn't mean you can tell them how to spend it. Could I call the Red Cross and tell them what to do? Good luck with that.

They should be thankful for all the long-distance touring tips you were posting in that thread.

I don't have the link to the thread in JM over there (I deliberately avoided it - I put twenty in too and didn't want to give the naysayers the time of day).

It was mostly negative vibes from Adv rider folks. Yeh I kept up with your progress most of the time. Especially around the time you went down in TX, even finally heard the whole story behind that too.
