Biking the Mississippi

Modify a bike, put on top of a boat, hook up paddle wheels to the contraption, and pedal your way downstream. Morgan Simmons was trying to come up with an excuse for his desire to bike his way down the Mississippi with his experimental bike-boat, and is now giving lectures (on the river and the path water takes from New York to the Gulf) and having his picture taken.
Excuses for taking long trips through wilderness and water…damn! I’ve been trying to think of one for years! Hmmm…what do I have around the apartment that can be modified…?
