The Beers

Alicia and I enjoy many outdoor activities. Alicia has long had a life goal of bicycling across America. It sounded like a great adventure to me. This was an opportune pause in our lives with a recent job loss (May 2009), so with just three weeks of planning and training - we were off.

This trek started May 24th, 2009 from Anacortes, Washington ending 65 days later in Portland, Maine (We had expected 60 days to Bar Harbor, Maine.).

3964 spinning miles!! Biggest day 115 miles. ~~Pete Beer

Day 21. The Big Run.

96 miles. Slow, agonizing miles. We landed in Malta at 8pm ate a
quick dinner and lights out (or rather Sun down).

We've been looking at our progress and thought we should be covering
more miles each day especially now that we are in flatter territory.
So the plan to Wolf Point was 96 to Malta; 81 to Nashua; then an easy
41 to Wolf Point with a half day off to explore the Kirkpatrick
heritage. In general, strive for bigger mileage days with weekly
totals of 600 miles plus.

Generally all is well.
