That's something I'll have to write down and consider. <br><br>One of the real problems is that almost *all* of the people we interviewed were first timers - and none of them really felt (at the time) that their trip was anything really deep or effecting. <br><br>Which is pretty normal during your ride. But we really needed voices that understood how things began to sink in back home. So that was always an issue :Pmike1630Sat, 07 Nov 2009 14:12:23 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/11/this-meets-this.html#comment-22128005Hey Hedge - thanks for the awesome comment. Yes, definitely, when I said interviews I just meant the things Amanda and I filmed during 64 Days - we're still hoping to collect many more Stockpile clips. We have a few ideas we like for integrating those into the film :)mike1630Sat, 07 Nov 2009 09:38:44 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/10/expedition-to-endure.html#comment-21493694I think I should introduce you like that every time from now on ;Pmike1630Sat, 31 Oct 2009 22:28:59 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/10/expedition-to-endure.html#comment-21493323Ah, crap, no it wasn't - I fixed it. You have enough people in your page now to lock in a username. If you just go to <a href="http://facebook.com/username" rel="nofollow">http://facebook.com/username</a> - you can get a shorter URL ;) <br><br>I need to get a link up in the sidebar too - so it's easy to for everyone to get to.mike1630Sat, 31 Oct 2009 22:17:07 -0000http://music.projectpedal.com/#comment-21108324Hey Alex - I'm listening to this song right now and I really like it! I'm going to check out a lot more of their stuff :) Awesome find. <br><br>Also, thanks so much for the Kickstarter pledge!mike1630Tue, 27 Oct 2009 11:24:03 -0000http://music.projectpedal.com/#comment-21108111Thanks Mike!mike1630Tue, 27 Oct 2009 11:19:53 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/09/post-production-week-92.html#comment-21016069Hey Daniel :) Thank you so much for writing this comment - it's always really exciting to hear from new people! What you wrote is very, very inspiring and motivating for us. Seriously... I don't know how I can stress that enough. <br><br>The idea that our project could actually help someone else in a stressful or challenging situation always seemed to be Amanda and I's ultimate goal for the film - so to hear this before the finished film is even out is very... it's just really wonderful. <br><br>Thanks for everything - for saying hello, for spreading the word, and for the recent pledge on Kickstarter!mike1630Mon, 26 Oct 2009 02:33:41 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/10/diggathon_23.html#comment-21015896Awesome :) Thanks Larry! I know - it's going to be fun. Though I hope you don't get sick of me fast, I do a long and growing list of shots I'll need to piece together the film. But I'm trying to make them fun - and hmm... you just gave me an idea about the dog tags.mike1630Mon, 26 Oct 2009 02:27:29 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/10/diggathon_23.html#comment-21015409Hey Hedge - awesome, thanks for pointing Daniel out. I'll send him an email and introduce myself - see if he'd like to help out :)mike1630Mon, 26 Oct 2009 02:05:31 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/10/diggathon_23.html#comment-21015269Hey Romain :) Uh oh. Hmm. Well, please don't be throwing off your whole sleep schedule just to Digg. Really, anytime during the day is going to be very, very helpful!mike1630Mon, 26 Oct 2009 01:59:32 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/10/three-pages.html#comment-20674518As the long as the lobsters you pull out are at least 4 feet tall and you have to fight them both to the death before drowning them in butter and eating them.mike1630Tue, 20 Oct 2009 22:31:42 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/10/three-pages.html#comment-20674424Hey Hedge - I like that :) and yes, Pedal is definitely about people's journeys. And it's about understanding that journey and how long that whole process can take. <br><br>Reaching the east coast isn't the end to someone's journey, especially not Larry's, but there *is* an expectation for it to be the "end". <br><br>When you're riding along, it's your goal, it's what you're trying to get to. And when you reach it, you go through a lot of emotions very quickly... and then they're gone. It's somewhat anti-climatic. It can take months to begin to realize that you're no where near finished with your experience. <br><br>But that's a different part of For Thousands of Miles ;) <br><br>Thanks for the awesome comment.mike1630Tue, 20 Oct 2009 22:29:08 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/10/diggathon.html#comment-19868500Hey Romain :) No, no - it's great to get some feedback on what specifically people think we should try to digg to get people into the project. I'm glad someone mentioned a specific video. <br><br>Would you say 64 Days over the new KSR intro video we put together a two weeks ago? Thanks for the comment!mike1630Sun, 11 Oct 2009 19:45:46 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/10/diggathon.html#comment-19868457Awesome :) thanks Kmog! You've already done so much - I know I've said it before, but thanks for doing that interview.mike1630Sun, 11 Oct 2009 19:44:05 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/10/diggathon.html#comment-19868427Thanks Kurt :)mike1630Sun, 11 Oct 2009 19:42:44 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/10/diggathon.html#comment-19868416Thanks for all the comments on Facebook, here and on Vimeo, Hedge :) I always appreciate it.mike1630Sun, 11 Oct 2009 19:42:08 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/10/leaps-and-bounds.html#comment-19469218Keep at it William :) Thanks for the comment.

I iz exclusive (and a dork). <br><br>But your project sounds pretty awesome - it definitely sounds like it's going to make great use of the web. I'm looking forward to the 14th then ;)mike1630Thu, 01 Oct 2009 15:04:41 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/09/create.html#comment-17644384In case you need reminding ;) You create beautiful photographs... and pretty awesome drawings of owls *mike1630Sun, 27 Sep 2009 16:06:52 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/09/five-films-that-inspire-ftom.html#comment-17641606Oh, and PS: you can stream Stranded on Netflix ;) and if you don't have an account, you can sign-up for a free 30 trial. Sneaky.mike1630Sun, 27 Sep 2009 14:33:28 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/09/five-films-that-inspire-ftom.html#comment-17641569Larry! :) I'd say - if you also loved Alive too - start with Stranded. That film... *shakes head* was just amazing, to listen to the people who actually survived in that mountain valley for 72 days is chilling. <br><br>And ha, yes - lucky for us we had the sandwiches you made.mike1630Sun, 27 Sep 2009 14:31:36 -0000http://blog.projectpedal.com/2009/09/create.html#comment-17641392Hey William :) that's a very cool project - I subscribed so I can keep an eye on your new videos and audio clips. Thank you very much for sharing that.mike1630Sun, 27 Sep 2009 14:22:40 -0000
