Sebree June 19 2018

We had heard so much about the church hostel in Sebree we rode a short day just to be able to stay there. Again, a very hot day, passing so many chicken growing places, not really farms, just pole buildings with no signage or windows. Just chickens. Grain trucks passed us all day and weContinue reading “Sebree June 19 2018”

Utica June 18

Honestly mid Kentucky is starting to look all the same, but we are enjoying ourselves immensely. We are quite inventive when it comes to beating the heat, diving into the c stores often and drinking tons of water. It was 102 degrees today, so we left early to beat the afternoon rays, riding into UticaContinue reading “Utica June 18”

June 17 Falls of Rough

The day started out very pleasant, a peaceful ride through beautiful farmland, on a gorgeous Sunday morning. By the afternoon it was again hot, windy and muggy. We had been traveling through many dry counties and it being Father’s Day I knew Mike might want a beer. We we passed a barn where there wasContinue reading “June 17 Falls of Rough”

June 16. White Mills

We packed up and moved on towards White Mills, a small four corners town with a gas station. Such a hot and muggy day, over 100 degrees again but relatively flat. The scenery is nondescript, but maybe I just thought that because it was so much corn and heat. We arrived at the Fire DepartmentContinue reading “June 16. White Mills”

June 14 and 15 Bardstown

It is now September and Mike and I are headed to a new bicycle adventure. I often will run into friends and they ask if we finished our late spring ride across the east coast. Who knew anyone was reading! For our own memories sake I pulled out my diary and will finish tales ofContinue reading “June 14 and 15 Bardstown”

June 13 Springfield

A short 30 mile beeline to Springfield today so we can head off to Bardstown tomorrow for a few days, a very cute tourist town filled with civil war history, distilleries, and very old Catholic churches. Our road was straight with wide shoulders and not much to see, so we just rode fast. Springfield isContinue reading “June 13 Springfield”

June 12 Danville

What a great day for riding a bike again! We went off route, Danville looked like a cute town to visit, and we found ourselves on the most deserted country roads with rolling hills, and beautiful landscapes with friendly dogs even! We stopped for lunch in the small town of Lancaster and just as weContinue reading “June 12 Danville”

June 10 and 11 Berea

We headed out today for our last day in the Appalachian Mountains. There was still a lot of climbing, but 1000 feet less than yesterday. Dogs were a huge problem today, perhaps ten dogs chased us in all. Really amazing, I find yelling at them still is the best deterrent, but one dog would notContinue reading “June 10 and 11 Berea”

June 9 Booneville

We started the morning going through road construction which was actually pretty amazing to observe. Heavy blasting shook the area for miles around. Mike and I love that stuff. We were forced to walk our bicycles as traffic weaved around us, not so fun, but before long we had wide shoulders to ride on forContinue reading “June 9 Booneville”

June 8 Hazard

We were just settled in for sleep when the youth pastor let us know two more cyclists were going to join us. It was dark outside and my heart bled for Aspen and Masherra as they rolled their Surlys into the basement of the church. These women are animals on their bicycles! They are bothContinue reading “June 8 Hazard”
