On Our Way Across Country

So, my DH and I have gone 495 miles and are in Rochester NY visiting a friend. We are basically taking Adventure Cycling Northern Tier route.

I am blogging: www.thepolkadotjournal.blogspot.com

If anyone lives on the Northern Tier Route and would be open to a visit from two wayward cyclists, let me know.

We got a rough start in a number of ways -- heatwave, broken wheel, a few flats, trouble sleeping. . . but I think these things are "normal" as one gets into a rhythm of touring. It has gotten better overall.

In Rochester I am getting a new stronger wheel and we are taking a couple of rest days. We will be off again early Sunday morning.

I think my father would be proud.

Thanks for all of your support.

Cheers,
Hirakukibou

Sounds like SO much fun! I will be following you on your blog.
Have a great time, and enjoy every second!!! :)

(PS- I would LOVE to host you, but we are way too far south). ;)

I am way to far south too. Looks like an awesome trip even with the getting lost. Sometimes getting lost can be really fun (sometimes not so much).

Enjoy your ride! I like your blog :D
