Postcard #14 has finally arrived! I can see why it took so long, can you? One bonus point to the first person to say why.

It seems that Dantom del Byondo is really thinking about winding down this adventure. The last couple of postcards have hinted at it, but this lost postcard gives us our biggest hint yet ("I think I can safely call this adventure complete"). Sounds like it's time for the final contest:

For 2 full points (good for one year of Membership for you or a friend, or any single item in the BYOND Store), guess Tom's final mileage for the trip. The closest guess wins it. One additional point if you guess the day the trip ends. I get the feeling it's coming soon!

Speaking of guesses, nobody's gotten either destination for days 29 and 30. Though I do like the tie-in of Jon88's guesses (Pringle, SD) since apparently Tom got himself some Pringles on day 24. How'd you know?

Feel free to go back and change your Postcard #17 answers while you can!

A simple writo in the address:

5105 Bike God Ln, rather than the correct 5150 Bike God Lane.

My guess: Tom was ambushed by road agents on the trail between Spearfish and Deadwood, and left for dead. At night, the wolves came, but fortunately, he was rescued by a sheriff's posse just in the nick of time. The postcard was lost in the commotion, but was later found by a VW van full of hippies who initially intended to use it as a large rolling paper, but finally decided to put it in a mailbox so as to avoid incurring the wrath of the Bike God.
