Hello, I have been hoping to experience a bicycle adventure this summer, about 800 miles total. Unfortunately my mother will not even think about it long enough to consider saying anything but NO, ABSOLUTELY NOT. She is too worried that I am going to get hit by a car, or murdered at a campsite. Her reasoning is ridiculous, I understand why she would be worried, however I also realize that I am more likely to get hit by a car where I live. I am constantly being passed by cars here in SE Wisconsin, the trip I had planned to Northern Wisconsin would involve periods of probably a half hour where I may only see one car. Any suggestions to sway her decision would be very helpful, I cannot think of anything else that may coax her into letting me go. I will be 18 years of age by the time the trip would come around, however if I just left for the trip, that would create hostility amongst my family. Thanks! -Dave
