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 43. Oxford Junction, Iowa

Today it is hot and muggy. It got to the mid 80's but, wow, the
humidity really steamed us up. We covered 91 miles over rolling hills.

Across south eastern Minnesota and now Iowa have been these wonderful
patches of wild lilies. It so cool see these growing naturally.
