Grind........ Man, that's a LONG WAY on a bike!!! Now that you mention your trip, we encountered quite a number of cyclists of all ages, biking in groups all along the way!!! It must be a popular trip. We stopped in Pestigo for breakfast and there was a guy (in fantastic shape) who was 76 making the trip with a group of others all over the age of 60. I give you guys credit. It's a LONG haul.

About 1,300 miles in 5 days - from Chespeake, VA to Asheville, NC, then Tail of the Dragon, then Blue Ridge Parkway from Cherokee, NC to Hillsville, VA, and back home. Great trip, and I want to do it again sometime.

Yesterday, down to York, PA and Harrisburg, just under 400 miles. Last year I did a 500 mile day up into NY, Next weekend, weather permitting, I'll be riding down to Philadelphia to visit my dad. That should be over 500 miles all together as well - but that one may be broken up over a couple days. Have to wait and see how that pans out.

longest was probably the trip to the Dragon from columbus ohio area to TN and dragon and riding that area and then thru Ky on way home and mammouth cave area and back home was i believe a 5 day trip and little over 1500 miles total.

Longest one day trip was around 500 miles riding down to ohio Wva boarder and all up along 7 along the river and back home.

just did 350 the other day on a run into PA and back.

1550 miles in 4 days. went from RI to Bar Harbor ME. went on the cat to Nova Scotia up to cabot trail and back to Portland ME on the cat and back to MA. If hyou can ever get up there I highly advise it. Take a look at my Nova Scotia album. the cabot trail is listed in the top 10 in rider magazine.
