I came across and article in Adventure cycling magazine about a 13 year old riding his bike cross country.  He is posting on crazyguyonabike.com and his writing style and vocabulary is a hoot.  Here is an example.

“Ferry didn’t arrive ’til 4 very tired updates later.” That is the verbatim post that I had no trouble posting last after half a day’s ride. It is all true except for ‘updates later’. There were going to be updates later, but this stupidly weak signal failed three times putting a cumulative hour and a half spent writing beautiful descriptions (you’ll have to take my word for it) down the drain. So here is a brief summary:

I rode through Eastern Virginia

The END

He also has two other journals on the site that are worth reading.
