[pct-l] PCT Thur Hike

[Reinhold Metzger]

Yes,
Switchback,....the  "Hard-Core"  hiker....turned  "Hard-Core"  biker.
Say, will long suffering Mrs. Switchback accompany you on this mind 
boggling journey?

If the answer is YES,  may I suggest you do this on one of those  
"German World War II Military Sidewinders"?
You know, the 3 wheel motorcycle with the sidecar attached to one side.
Mrs. Switchback would be much more comfortable in the sidecar than 
hanging on to you on the back seat.

May I further suggest that for your and Mrs. Switchback's protection you 
both wear the  "German Military World War II Spiked Helmets"  and the 
Field Marshall Rommel goggles?
You and Mrs. Switchback will look so Cooool.
But hey,.....you have to live up to that that  "Hard-Core"  hiker 
reputation.

BTW....Bikers have a tendency to use their helmets to sit on....may I 
suggest you not do that?
