Map Update!

By -
To everyone that has been clicking on our day to day map tab, we have finally got around to updating it. It now shows where we started and if we either camped or slept in a bed.

We will try to stay on top of the map updating from this point on.

    What up! You should post your daily miles and then your total miles after that...something like this 42/1025 (miles for day)/(total miles traveled for trip). Whadaya think? Eh, eh?

    Good suggestion, I will start doing that in the next post.

Days 81-85: Eastern Parts of West Coast States, Washington and Oregon Riding

10/13 Day 81: Winchester, ID to Pomeroy, WA 74 miles (4086 miles)             The sun once again refused to rise today, and it promised to be another gray day of riding, but one that would at least offer us a nice long descent to start our day. We packed things up quickly and got out of the park in short order so that we could make our way to the gas station just a half mile or so away. We had some coffee and ate granola at the only table in the store, which was right in the middle of the place, so we had our hobo picnic right in everyone's way. Once we'd eaten our fill and were ready to go back out into the chilly morning, we cleaned everything up, threw on some warm clothes, and made our way out of town. The road out of Winchester was in pretty poor repair, covered in potholes and cracks, and made for some rough riding at first. Things improved as we made our way further out, and after a short while we found ourselves on the brink of a 2,000 ft descent on a wild, winding r

Days 20-23: EmanciPAtion and Into Ohio

8/11 Day 20: Ohiopyle, PA to Cedar Creek Park Free Campground, Somewheresville, PA 40 miles (875 miles) The four of us pose in front of a bend in the Youghagheny River, just off the rail trail.         We didn't have to be out of our cabin today 'til 10AM, so we decided to take full advantage and sleep up until 9:30. We ate light breakfast and hauled our bikes back down the torturous gravel trail we had come up the night before. It wasn't until 11 that we reached the rail trail, since we had taken our time getting everything together. The trail, we learned, stretches all the way from Pittsburgh to D.C. and was already teeming with short run tourists, families on day rides, joggers, dog-walkers, and anyone looking to get a quick walk or ride in during their day. Our late start didn't spur us on any faster, we kept a steady, easy pace until Connellsville where we had a pretty mediocre lunch at the Valley Dairy Diner, and had our bikes looked over at the local bi

SPOT Us!

Almost one week to go til departure and Erin and I are about to head back to Boston from the beach and dismantle our lives. In other news, I just acquired a Spot device, thanks to my wonderful parents. With this gadget I'll be able to send check-in messages to the world and, more relevantly, to a shared page that will link to the blog. On that shared page you'll be able to view the location of our check-ins for the last seven days. The only location point on the map right now is in North Carolina, where I'm at the beach with my family, but it should give you guys an idea of the map's functionality. The device is named Argus, after Hera's trusted watchman who had a hundred eyes. When Argus slept, only half his eyes would close, so he was always on guard. This little device keeps us safe and able to call for help whenever we need to, wherever we are, and lets you keep a close eye on us too. For more info go to findmespot.com
