by Chris Quimby

In 2012, a discouraged 39-year old Chris Quimby struggled to determine which direction in life he should head. Suffering a mixture of unemployment and underemployment, the husband and father of two prayed sincerely for God's direction. Not at peace to trade in his individuality for a cubicle and good benefits, the local comedian reached for something more. Encouraged by a recent reading at a local seminary, Quimby embarked on a plan to blend his unique talents, desires and opportunities into an adventure for the whole family. Spokes & Jokes chronicles the eight-week bicycle journey from Maine to Texas that captured the imagination and survived on the support and prayers of hundreds of others. Over 2100 miles. Lodging at the homes of 29 different strangers. 8 comedy performances. Endless memories. From the first day of the idea's conception in Maine to the eventual arrival in Rockwall, Texas, this narratives features the doubts, successes and reflections of a journey of faith into the unknown.
