### Kajsa, I'm a former Motorcycle Safety Foundation Instructor, as well
as a sometime throughhiker-type. Flunking your MC test is nothing compared
to the pain and anguish you're about to voluntarily undertake. Write to me
if, three weeks onto the AT, you don't look back at your MC test and laugh
loud and long that you were bothered at all about it. You're going to be
freezing cold and hungry and your bones are going to ache. And then the
hail will come.

Cheer up, my friend!
Look! Lean! Roll!

There is little use for the being whose tepid soul knows nothing of the great and generous emotions of the high pride, the stern belief, the lofty enthusiasm, of the men who quell the storm and ride the thunder.
