We got out pretty early today (8:30ish) and said goodbye to our luxurious camping resort. We started riding on a smooth bike trail that ended pretty abruptly, so we unanimously decided to get some donuts to console ourselves. After our treats, we took the less hilly (but more beachy) route to a beautiful ride down […]
We made it to Acadia National Park!! The day we’ve long anticipated has finally arrived. With many miles and giant hills behind us, we feast on a overflowing plate of burritos and burst into random spouts of laughter, somewhat inspired by delirious exhaustion, mostly spurred from gratitude of accomplishing the laborious journey to Acadia. All […]
Today we woke up and ate a delish hotel breakfast with MANY waffles. We biked the Duchess Rail Trail to the Walkway Over the Hudson, where we crossed over the Hudson River on the famous pedestrian bridge. We ate lunch and continued our route North to the FDR house. After we walked through the museum, […]
Today we woke up a little sweaty and bitten by mosquitos (#camplife) and ate oatmeal and biked to the grocery store. We biked, picniced at the park and talked about Australia and the great Emu war. Then we biked a really long downhill stretch, and the only working speedometer is in kilometers. We biked to […]
This morning we left what we thought was our favorite camp ground on Martha’s Vineyard which we had stayed 2 nights at. After catching the 9:30 ferry we landed in Woodshole and headed to our new home Falmouth. The ferry let us off onto a wonderful bicycle path that was shaded by large trees then […]
We stared at our maps early this morning, mentally preparing ourselves for what seemed like a long and arduous day full of continuous roads and serious incline. Little did we expect the little adventures along the way that would make this day notable for more than just the miles behind us. The day started out […]
After three nights of sleeping in tents we all enjoyed our first of two nights at Martha’s Vineyard Family Campground. We had cabins to sleep in and free showers! After breakfast, we headed out to the beach where Jaws was filmed and jumped off the nearby bridge into the water as many times as our […]
Today we met at Dobbs Ferry in the morning and tried to maneuver our bikes into an elevator. We biked to a nearby grocery store and did some meal planning and grocery shopping. After a short ride on a bike path, we stopped for lunch next to a lake and enjoyed the company of the […]
The Atlantic coast has become progressively hillier as we travel Northeast but our progressively more massive quads were able to make short work of today’s ascents and we finished the ride quickly with plenty of time to relax at this evening’s campsite. Once we arrived and set up camp, we grabbed our belays and started […]
The campsites that we’ve been staying in have been some of the best sites that one could really ever ask for. Yesterday’s site was a sort of mixture between an organic farm and an Oceanside campsite. There was an educational livestock barn, a farm store where the days produce could be purchased, and a cafe […]
