I’ve been back in the U.S. for over a week now, but haven’t spent any time updating the blog. So, here’s a quick post and some pictures to get you up to speed: Wedding We started out a crazy few weeks with a drive to central Illinois for the wedding of our friends Brandy and …
I am newer to bike travel, but I found a bike ride that I wanted to do that stretched from Cockeysville, MD to York, PA – about 40 miles of travel trail total. I figured I wouldn’t be up for the trek back as well, so we turned it into a weekend trip to Pennsylvania. …
