        Boring facts: The highest pass he’ll have to cross on his journey looks like this:

        If he’ll have to be rescued, then because someone ran him over.

            I mean he should get to the East Coast around 70 days from now, what are the chances he’ll see snow before January 30th. Guess he can turn around and ride back through the Appalachian Mountains in February. No snow there right?

        Another fact: Society failed to educate him properly using taxpayer money.

        Perhaps society deserves to face the consequences of its actions.

          I agree with you and have even more to add -

          Even more fun fact - the taxpayer money that will likely eventually be used to rescue this person, potentially saving their life, is an infinitesimal waste compared to so very many other things. I’m not ever going to shame someone or expect them to be billed/prosecuted/etc for their rescue unless they criminally broke the law in order to arrive at that state. (and maybe not even then)
