When I was a child, 20th century was a remote future. My uncle, who was
over 60 years old, looked very old with his gray hair at that time. As I
've got older,silver color occupies black. The sense of the last summer in 19th century urges me
to this challenge.
The snow on top of the Rocky mountains will disappear in May. I am going to head
east from northern Seattle with a sleeping bag, light meal, cloths, a camera and it
'sequipment, roles of films and state-of-the-art digital communication equipment on
the bike. My goal is Southampton University in Southampton NY. At the time
I get there, daylight hours will have got shorter and a new semester of my university
will just around the corner. I can not waste my time. In September, 1991, I biked 1800
kilometers from Canada to LIU to collect donations for our university. It was my 53
-and-a half-year
's adventurous challenge. In 1999, I will be 61 years old. In thischaotic world with the problems about aging society, environment, human health and
food, global communication, I want to keep challenging to raise founds for the
disabled youth in America and Japan. I will be happy if you support me for the
achievement of my goal. Yoshiharu Higa
