Western Kentucky is rich with history, nature, and music. I leave Mammoth Cave National Park and struggle to ride with wet weather and storms that continue to slow me down. A librarian shows me kindness and a place to hide from the rain. A car looses control behind me and I have my first freak out moment. More rain forces me to take a day off in Owensboro where I visit the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame and Museum. Executive Director, Chris Joslin, shares some of the interesting history and instruments of Bluegrass Music. Subscribe to see what other kinds of crazy adventure I get myself into as I travel with my touring bicycle for 4,000 miles and thru 14 states before reaching the West Coast during these 11 weeks of summer.

  3. Kentucky is among my favorites thus far. Ice always enjoyed my travels there. Thanks for bringing me along.

  4. You was lucky you did not get hit.I was hit on my Surly Big Dummy back in 2015 I did not know this until the next day when I was hit part of my upper back was broke and I lost my big dummy as well.But I'm still here we never know what may happen to us while touring stay safe and keep on making these great videos.

  5. Starting watching the series from the start. Love all the episodes but this was my favorite. The bluegrass was killer. Thanks for sharing. Hope to do that ride someday!!
