50++ Cyclists Touring the US - With No End in Sight
Earlier in the week my wife and hosted Janice and Stephen Rickey, touring cyclists who are 7,300 miles into their bike ride that started in Seattle, went to San Diego and then over to Key West and now is heading up the East Coast. He is 72, she is in her mid 60s - they sold their house, and have no end point planned.
I posted a bit more on them in the Touring forum here. You can see their full journal at CycleBlaze here.
A few days after the left us, I met up with them on the East Coast Greenway route through Maryland and did about half of their Annapolis to Baltimore segment with them. For the first time, they are touring on e-bikes - just using eco mode to get up hills loaded, they are very strong pedalers.
