Traveling on dusty roads, roads of logs, of planks, even of corn stalks, and often no roads at all, they pedaled, pushed, and walked a thousand miles north for fifty-four days. With excitement in their hearts and a good luck billiken in their bedroll, they started out with only $5.65 between them. Camp was wherever, whenever the sun was gone; food was an occasional meal from a kindly farm wife and what they could fish, hunt, or glean. But they learned that all strangers were not kind, not even close.   Vic and Ray reported their adventures to their home-town newspaper. And what adventures they had. They met their share of memorable characters, from a young girl who stole Ray's heart to a pin-striped hustler who tried to pick Vic's pocket. They traveled paths beside railroad tracks, fought their way around boulders and up brushy hillsides, and crossed rivers layered with salmon. They survived a grizzly's nocturnal visit and the sudden terror of a snake bite. They held their breaths crossing railroad trestles over treacherous canyons, and discovered that a railroad tunnel doesn't offer safe passage when you're halfway through and a train comes along.  Evelyn Gibb, daughter of one of the cyclists, has drawn on her father's recollections to tell this incredible adventure in his voice. Winner of the Pacific Northwest Writers Association Nonfiction Book Award, Two Wheels North is a captivating account of a journey that today we can only dream about--one that finds two boys on the road not only to Seattle, but also to manhood.\""},{"label":"Search SCL Digital Archives for this Author","value":["McDaniel, Victor, 1889-"]},{"label":"Search Author or Book in Library Catalog","value":"Search for works by Victor McDaniel in the <a href=\"https://find.sonomalibrary.org/client/en_US/default/search/results?qu=%22McDaniel%2C+Victor%22&te=&rt=false%7C%7C%7CAuthor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">library catalog</a>"},{"label":"Author Website","value":"View <a href=\"https://www.wheelsnorth.org/ \" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">personal or professional website</a> for Victor McDaniel"},{"label":"Search Author in Open Library","value":"Search for works by Victor McDaniel in <a href=\"https://openlibrary.org/search/authors?q=McDaniel+Victor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Open Library</a>"},{"label":"Author's Place(s) of Residence","value":["Santa Rosa"]},{"label":"Sort Title","value":"Victor McDaniel (1889-)"},{"label":"Significant Title","value":"Two Wheels North : Bicyling the West coast in 1909"},{"label":"Digital Archives Identifier","value":"victor_mcdaniel"},{"label":"Digital Archives Collection Name(s)","value":["Sonoma County Local Authors"]},{"label":"Date Added","value":"2015/07/30"},{"label":"Filename","value":"victor_mcdaniel.jpg"},{"label":"Title","value":"Victor McDaniel (1889-)"},{"label":"Item Type","value":["Text"]},{"label":"Item Format or Genre","value":["Biography files","Bibliographies","Portraits","Photographs"]},{"label":"Search SC Local Arts for this Author or Artist","value":"<a href=\"https://digital.sonomalibrary.org/documents?filter_363=victor_mcdaniel&applyState=true\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Victor McDaniel (1889-)</a>"},{"label":"Collection(s)","value":["Sonoma County Local Authors"]},{"label":"Author Name (Controlled)","value":["Victor McDaniel (1889-)"]}],"description":"Victor McDaniel (1889-)","sequences":[{"@type":"sc:Sequence","canvases":[{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/b5049209-bbaf-40bc-a992-325158aa51d4/canvas/_1","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"Victor McDaniel (1889-)","height":450,"width":450,"images":[{"@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/b5049209-bbaf-40bc-a992-325158aa51d4/full/full/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/b5049209-bbaf-40bc-a992-325158aa51d4","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json","tiles":[{"width":512,"scaleFactors":[1]}]},"height":450,"width":450},"on":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/b5049209-bbaf-40bc-a992-325158aa51d4/canvas/_1","metadata":[]}],"thumbnail":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/b5049209-bbaf-40bc-a992-325158aa51d4/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","height":500,"width":500}}]}],"thumbnail":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/b5049209-bbaf-40bc-a992-325158aa51d4/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","logo":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/logo"}
