Leigh's Cross Country Bike Ride. 3847 miles June 6 through July 29, 2009. Sunday, July 26, 2009. Day 50: Latham to Brattleboro VT. This was my first time visiting Vermont. After 32 miles through Eastern New York we crossed the Vermont border. I knew we were on to something when the welcome to Vermont sign had Kerry-Edwards signs stuck to it . progressive in a retro way? And they would enthusiastically say Yes. Then I would follow up No - I mean Real Fruit and they'd fess up to the evil, sneaky mix...

Leigh's Cross Country Bike Ride. 3847 miles June 6 through July 29, 2009. Saturday, July 25, 2009. Day 49: Little Falls to Latham NY. We are in Revolutionary War territory. Today's ride followed the Mohawk river though a valley in the Adirondacks east into Latham, a suburb of Albany. There were signs lining the road pointing out where there were Inns, pubs, river crossings and homesteads of noteworthy folks. This area was hopping and a source of contention. We followed a bike path alongside the River and...

Leigh's Cross Country Bike Ride. 3847 miles June 6 through July 29, 2009. Tuesday, July 14, 2009. Day 37 and 38: Crawfordsville to Indianapolis and Rest Day. First off, I can't believe I forgot to write about the Fountain County 4-H Animal Fair for Day 36. So when I saw the sign at for the 4-H show in I went. And sure enough, there they were - mop-headed horse crazy little girls riding horses ranging from high quality and well trained to the backyard swaybacked pet. So after the car racing we headed back...

Leigh's Cross Country Bike Ride. 3847 miles June 6 through July 29, 2009. Thursday, July 9, 2009. Day 33: Kirksville Missouri to Quincy, IL. Yesterday I overdid it a bit. And today I could really feel it. To top it off I didn't get my ice bath last night because the tub was draining slow which usually means something nasty is down there and I just didn't have the stomach to clean the drain and then hunt down the disinfectant from housekeeping to sanitize the tub (like a few days ago . Yuck.). Day 29 and ...
