As I cycle around the country, I am filming a documentary asking everyone I meet one simple question, the question that drove me around the world on a bicycle: "If you could do anything, what would you do?"

It has been amazing to see the sparkle of inspiration in people's eyes. The answers have been beyond my imagination, sometimes funny and sometimes serious as many Americans are struggling to pay their bills and reevaluating the meaning of their lives. Watch bi-monthly updates as this documentary paints a picture of life in America in 2009 and the timeless wonder of what it means to be human and to dream.

An invitation to join or support the adventure.

I've traveled the world by bicycle to discover the "secrets" of life, and I've spent many more years to digest what I learned and create a book that I believe has the magical recipe for taking the first giant step towards living a life beyond your wildest imaginations. The secret is somewhat hidden in a dramatic, entertaining and fun story: I almost die, fall in love, see God and find myself — what more from a story could you ask for?

Beginning April, 2009, I'm going to circumnavigate the USA on a bicycle bringing the hope, inspiration and self-actualization of Falling Uphill to the doorstep of your community. And I'm inviting everyone to share the adventure with me.

Of course, bicycling isn't everyone's dream, but everyone has dreams. Why not join me for a ride through the countryside as an example that you can take that first small step in your own personal adventure of discovery? Why not challenge yourself and inspire your loved ones by sharing the adventure for an hour, or a day or longer.

Maybe you're not a bicyclist but your passionate about the message. Why not help co-create the adventure (and your own) by plotting my course on the map, posting photos, videos and stories, networking with friends, or just sharing a hot cup of coffee and a warm conversation. If you're a really ambitious community member why not plan a speaking engagement, slideshow or interview for me, or organize a local bike ride as I pass through your town.

Thanks to everyone for helping to make our "impossible" dreams possible

PS. I'm creating this as I go along, risking literally everything I have, and teaching myself the same lessons, so if it's any comfort to those who may be feeling fearful to risk living the life they truly want to live—believe me!— we are all in the same boat. So, why not revitalize your self and therefore your community and country?
