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 40. Wildcat Landing, Brownsville MN

Another 81 miles down. We are tired, yet enjoying our camp here
beside the Mississippi. Watching barges, boats, and people. Not too
busy here yet, considering the 4th is coming.

Tomorrow we enter Iowa as we continue south to Muscatine before
heading east again.

This is a picture of the Mississippi valley from atop the bluffs along
the Apple Blossum scenic byway.
