"Biking Comedian" Pedals to Hawaii!
Hi Everyone,
I received this press release from Carnival and thought it would be of interest. If you have missed any of my news' postings, they are available on my web site. Best regards, Ray LIGHTHOUSE TRAVEL 800-719-9917 or 805-566-3905 http://www.lighthousetravel.com 'BIKING COMEDIAN' TO PEDAL TO HAWAII ON CRUISE SHIP AND COMPLETE 16-YEAR QUEST MIAMI 09/29/03 Tom Snyders, the "Bicycling Comedian," is slated to complete his 16-year quest to bicycle all 50 U.S. states when Carnival Cruise Lines' Carnival Spirit arrives at Maui, Hawaii, Tuesday, Sept. 30. Snyder departed Vancouver, B.C., Wednesday, Sept. 24, and has pedaled his bike on a stationary stand and performed his comedy act on board the ship during the five-day crossing. During the past 16 years Snyders has ridden his bicycle to more than 200 engagements at comedy clubs and festivals. He has logged more than 121,000 miles - five times the circumference of the earth - and has traversed the 49 continental states, but has never biked Hawaii. Over the course of his travels, Snyders has photographed silly and enigmatic signs all over the United States, Australia and Europe. The absurd images combined with his on-the-road experiences provide the comedic material for his act, which incorporates a slide show and humorous recounting of his biking adventures. When the Carnival Spirit docks at the Port of Kahului on Maui, Snyders will complete his quest by cycling for the day on the island before rejoining the ship for a cruise to Ensenada, Mexico. Introduced in April 2001, the 88,500-ton, 2,124-passenger Carnival Spirit was built in Finland for $375 million. The ship sails seasonally to Hawaii every spring and fall.
