Twentieth Anniversary of the Great Bike Ride Across America: July 14 -- August 9, 1992

Twenty years ago, Connie and I, newly married (well, less than 2 years) decided (or I decided and she pretended to think it was a good idea) to challenge ourselves and to see this great country. I took a leave of absence from work and we flew to Denver, Colorado with our bikes to ride from Denver back home to Ithaca, NY. The above map shows our trip; we only made it as far as Peoria, Illinois before our time was up, around 1200 miles. I'm going to upload pictures and notes from this epic trip.
