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

Marias Pass 5236 ft

We have crossed the final western mountain pass! Yea!

We have arrived after a 43 mile ride in Browning. This is on the
Blackfeet Indian reservation.

It was a cold ride today with rain spitting at us the last 5 miles.

We will go to Shelby tomorrow. Our strategy will me to ride early and
hopefully avoid afternoon rains. Looking at weather profiles for the
next 600 miles, June is the rainiest month in this region.
