Birthday Ride, The Finish

Ok, things didnt go completely smoothly (at least till the end)...Nic pulled up with a flat on River Road, at least 20 minutes to fix as his tire was old and not very flexible and the pump disintegrated into pieces....sigh...but the Smoothies at the end made up for it all...

30 Miler with Nic on Birthday!

Nic broke out the Peugueot today and we did a 30
miler! Here he is getting ready for the big one,
helmet and all....action shot on right is on McArthur
Blvd, heading for the challenging hill up to Falls
Road....meanwhile, where oh where was The Engine?

Wellsboro Fall 2008 Part II

Lots of great fall scenery...particularly stunning are the old railroad
bridges and the rivers...riding up through the PA Grand Canyon
is quite spectacular in the fall....Arriving in Blackwater upper left...

Wellsboro Fall 2008

Long long day in the saddle...nearly 110 miles up to Wellsboro from the Corner Room...much of it on the old rails to trails...you can see the gravel surface to the left...hard but gives a little, meaning more power output per pedal stroke...picked up a rider, Dean, in Lock Haven...
