The hills may be horribly steep, and the heat may be oppressive, and the sunburn may sting a little, and my legs may be tired but the views really make the climbs worth it around here. Especially when you get to go 30 mph down the other side.

Brutal!
Just climbed that.
I didnt feel like walking back to get a better photo but it was a mile and a half long.

Ritchfield springs
Made it over the rolling hills. These were pretty rough and I'm ready for some sleep. 6 miles before we find a campsite though. I feel like i can tackle the hills a lot better now, even though my legs are feeling tired. Over 60 miles done today
Rt 20
Rt. 20 coming from Schenectady. The rolling hills of NY. Who knows where we'll end up tonight?
New York!
Made it to NY. Hard to believe we made it from Florida, MA to Schenectady, NY with all those hills. We had some amazing hosts the photo shows where we camped. There may have been poison ivy out there too...

Taconic Range
Crazy hills crossing into NY but with some awesome views. Pictures still to come
Bear sighting
Saw a bearing trying to get down to the river yesterday when we were getting into the Berkshires. He ran up the hill right when he saw us and just stared down at us as we rode. He was bigger than i thought a black bear would be but he didn't want anything to do with us.
