I've been cycling in one form or another all my life. In 93 I took a long retirement to recover from plantar faciatas. In 09 I bought a mountain bike to ride in the nice trails we have here in Austin, TX.
Last summer I had my 89 Centurion redone and started road biking. After reading 'Riding With the Blue Moth', I was inspired to ride my bike from Austin to Little Rock, TX, and planned to take my ride in Sept 2010.
I got sick 2 weeks before I was supposed to go and could not recover.
As soon as I get my tax refund I am purchasing a fully loaded Surly LHT, and have rescheduled the trip for this September.

Howdy and welcome to the forums. Is that Little Rock in Arkansas that you mean? If so, sounds like a good trip. Have fun.
