This adventure has been designed to capture new media (video) in four states previously, and glaringly, missing from the list of US states captured in video by the notorious RCVman. In almost criminal exclusion remain; Montana, The Dakotas and Wyoming. This route will also serve as scouting intel for a cycling trip to take place in August of 2019. As initially graphed above, this whilrwind trek entails over 2,000 miles in 5 days. The only riding day will be the last day on the Hiawatha Trail on a rented mountain bike. All other video to be captured by GoPro HD mounted to vehicle hood. I anticipate close to 20 hours of route video, plus several more of time lapse 'atmpospherics'. Being the stickler for frugality that makes all this possible, initial budget limits have been established at less than one thousand US dollars, including RT air. 

Wish me luck.
