Well, you've got the, uh, you've definitely got the skills, and talk about Matt's skills with a hammock. Man, you've got that just, you've got that. No problem at all. Well, you know, if you do decide to do that, don't forget to take a node or a radio or something, or borrow one when you get over there. Boy, that would be the continuing adventures of Matt, KI7UEF. Where's Matt today? Oh wait, no, that's, uh, that's something from NBC. Alrighty, well you take care of that. And hey, real quick, so, Chris, uh, does he talk to other members from Warm Showers, the group across the United States, or does he just meet up with random people, or how does he get help, or how does he get the next spot? I, I have a feeling it's through Warm Showers, right? Just like the way he found you. And has he encountered any trouble at all, or bike breakdowns? And is he riding a Brompton? I know that's a lot to pack in there, but what have you got on that? Back to you, Matt. KI7UEF, KI7RMU. Brompton, uh, for sure. He's riding a Trek Checkpoint, pretty common standard issue, uh, Trek kind of gravel-ish bike. It's kitted out nice, he's with panniers and blah, blah, blah. Um, Warm Showers has a, uh, a whole application, uh, ecosystem as well as a website. It's kind of nice, they, uh, you know, like anything, you have to watch for people abusing it. But, uh, you as a, as a rider, as a guest, have to pay a membership fee, uh, to solicit requests via their platform. Uh, their, their platform will show you where their hosts are located, and, and by that method, you can then select to send them a request. Ask for some help on your bike journey. I like to pay it forward, you know. Uh, I've, I've certainly been, um, gifted some places to stay off that platform and others, and, uh, yeah, it's nice to chat with the, the folks coming through. And, uh, lend them, I, I know the value of a nice place to lay your head in a Warm Shower after a long, hard day on the bike. KI7UEF.
