The bike ride beckons…

If you wish to read a really inspirational story see the article by Kyle Munson about a young lady who lost six months of her memory… she rode the bike ride across Iowa last year and does not remember it.  So she will ride this year for the second (first) RAGBRAI.

Reliance Premier (1916) can be relied on…

It works… it types… after 97 years one must accept the fact it was well made.

1916 Reliance Premier still gets the job done.

Finding my groove on a 1929 Royal…

Each typewriter I use brings with it a different sense of being when I touch the keys.  What I write shifts as the interactions of my fingers to the keys to my thoughts to the page converge and the act of creation begins.

The Underwood should be enough…

When you have one great typewriter…. why get another.  I hate to say it but I cheat on my Underwood.
