No Im afraid Nina the bikes stayed at home. With five of us we had more than enough junk to haul from place to place. We really like stopping at places along the way and Im always nervous about leaving my bike in or on top of the car at tourist type spots.
Here are a couple of other shots from our trip. We took a stack but I wont bore you to death.
From left to right top to bottom:
Portland Head Maine
Tall ships Newport Rhode Island
Central Park New York City
Union Station Hotel Nashville Tennessee
We passed through 27 states on our cross country and back road trip.

I'm glad you managed to find about the only architecture worth photographing in Nashville!
27 states! Wow. My son and I did 15 in 13 days in April. I LOVE cross country trips. Him, not so much.
Karen Nooo, I love HIM, but HE doesn't love cross country trips!!!

What a great trip!
you really covered some ground! The tall bike guy is awesome. There were some of those bikes on last years ALC. I don't know how they deal with wind! or stoplights!

Great pictures of your holiday!
The bike picture is interesting. Did you manage to see a dismount? I could see no evidence of a bike lock - guess he doesn't have any problem with it being stolen, as you would have to have the correct riding technique for a fast getaway! He would have to be very careful negotiating tree lined pathways/roads and dodge hanging signs. Never seen one like that before. When I was waiting for the picture to download, I thought you may have taken a shot of somebody on a penny farthing bike.
