Todd: OK, Terry, now when you take your bike trips, when you bicycle across America or down the West Coast, what is a typical day? Like how would you start your day and how would you finish your day on the bicycle?

托德:泰瑞,你在进行自行车骑行时,骑着自行车穿越美国或沿着西海岸一直向南骑行时,你一天的行程是怎样的?你每天的开始和结束都是怎样的?
Terry: Well, a typical day, I'm camping usually, so I usually get up at or near sunrise, sometimes I get up slightly before sunrise, and I have to pack up all of my camping gear, stuff the sleeping bag in a stuffed sack, roll up my air mattress, pack up the tent, and then eat breakfast and then I usually try and, you know, do the daily essentials and then hit the road. I usually try to be on the road on the road sometime around 7, 7:30 in the morning, depending on when the sun comes up. But I like to go cycling early in the morning because it's cooler and there's, you tend to see more wildlife and I just think it's a nicer time of day, especially if you're riding in the summer, it tends to get warmer, as the day goes on, so, and then I usually try and hit, find a campground sometime in the afternoon and then the process starts again in setting up camp, setting up a tent and whatnot. Um, during the day, I'm usually cycling, actually cycling for 5 to 6 hours a day and then taking two or three hours off, various breaks, and eating lunch and whatnot, and then usually in the afternoon, I stop and buy some food, that I can cook, so I can cook dinner in camp and have breakfast the next morning. Oh, that's pretty cool.
泰瑞:一天的行程,基本上我在自行车旅行时是露营,所以我大概会在日出的时候起床,有时我会在日出前起床,我要收拾露营用品,把睡袋装进包里、把气垫床卷起来、把帐篷收好,然后开始吃早饭,一般我会准备好日常用品好再出发。我会在早上七点或七点半左右出发,这要取决于太阳升起的时间。我喜欢在清晨骑自行车,因为那个时候天气凉爽而且能看到很多野生动物,我认为那是一天中相对美好的时间,尤其是在夏天骑行时,随着时间一天天过去,天气越来越暖和,下午的时候我会找好露营地,然后又是一样的过程,把帐篷支好等诸如此类的事情。嗯……一般我每天骑行五六个小时,然后休息两三个小时,吃午饭或之类的,下午的时候我会停下来买一些食物,这样我就可以在营地做晚饭和第二天的早饭了。这非常酷。
Todd: So you just pay for everything with a credit card, or you bring cash, or?
托德:你买东西是用信用卡还是现金?
Terry: Oh, both. Especially in the Unites States, with debit cards you can get cash back when you're buying food at a grocery store or so. It's always nice to have cash to pay for incidentals and...
泰瑞:哦,都会用到。尤其像在美国,你用借记卡在杂货店之类的地方买食物会返还现金。用现金买一些小东西非常方便。
Todd: Well, that's interesting. You said that you see wildlife. What wildlife would you see?
托德:这很有趣。你说过你看到过野生动物。你看到了什么野生动物?
Terry: Oh, on this trip, as an example: elk and deer and raccoon and possums and turtles and snakes and all kinds of wildlife.
泰瑞:哦,以这次旅行为例:我看到了麋鹿、梅花鹿、浣熊、负鼠、乌龟、蛇等各种野生动物。
Todd: You know, have you almost ever hit an animal?
托德:你有没有撞到过动物?
Terry: I haven't. I don't think I've ever come close to hitting an animal, no.
泰瑞:没有。我想我离它们的距离不足以撞到它们。
Todd: Well, speaking of being hit, have you had any close calls with cars?
托德:说到被撞,你有没有差点被汽车撞到的经历?
Terry: Um, well, that's kind of, I think goes with the territory, so to speak. I've never come close to getting hit but I certainly feel like on occasion, I've been, I've had vehicles come closer to me that I wanted them to close, and, kind of, the real bug-a-boo for cyclists is logging trucks, and back east, coal trucks, they're just, they can be really terrifying when they are going by and you're cycling down the road.
泰瑞:嗯,我觉得可以这么说,这是难免的。我会和汽车保持距离,从来没有被撞过,不过有时我喜欢汽车离我近些,我想让它们近一些,对骑车族来说真正的威胁是木材车和煤车,在骑行时要是这些车经过你旁边会非常可怕。
Todd: I bet. Wow. OK, thanks Terry.
托德:我相信。哇,好的,谢谢你,泰瑞。
