Intercourse on the Bike

Our faithful readers may remember at the end of our last post, we were headed to a smorgasbord. We did some research and found a less touristy and smaller smorgasbord, which looked a lot like a southern “country buffet” to me. It was really good and I felt like I controlled myself. Or did I?… Read More Intercourse on the Bike

Tandem Trilogy

Before we get to today’s fun in the (very hot) sun, a word about the Cork Factory Hotel, which has been our home for the last few days. Believe it or not, this place used to be a cork factory back in the day and they spent big bucks refurbishing it into a hotel and… Read More Tandem Trilogy

Three-Mile Meltdown

Today’s blog is sponsored by our good friends at Hershey and Mars candies. We started our ride in Elizabethtown, where unbeknown to us, Mars has a chocolate plant where they make Milky Ways, Three Musketeers, and Dove chocolates. The whole town smells like chocolate as we get ready for the ride. First stop, Three-Mile Island,… Read More Three-Mile Meltdown

62 Miles, Six Covered Bridges

The covered bridge metric century is a “must do” ride in Amish country and we “must do” it today because the temperatures are predicted to be near 100 by the end of the week. We start riding around 7:30, but with the hills and the stops, we don’t finish until about 1:30. It’s hot and… Read More 62 Miles, Six Covered Bridges

Junk Food Junkies

One of the best things about this week’s riding is that every ride has a destination to visit toward the middle of the pedaling. Today’s 48-mile ride has two, the Utz potato chip factory followed by the Snyder’s pretzel factory, both located in the manufacturing mecca of Hanover. We had a great ride through endless… Read More Junk Food Junkies

Day 2: Wine Times Two

It’s 12:15PM, it’s getting hot and we are climbing a steep mountain at 4MPH. We started this ride 3 hours ago, yet somehow we have gone only 16 miles. Is it that hilly near Gettysburg? No! There are two wineries on this ride and a farmers market, and we have just visited all three in… Read More Day 2: Wine Times Two

Pennsylvania Dutch Prologue and Day 1

Welcome to our latest 2011 adventure! We are headed to Amish country in Pennsylvania via minivan, which is a long haul for us, but we decided not to fly so that we didn’t have the airport hassles with the bike on this trip, and no assembly is required. It’s around 750 miles to our destination,… Read More Pennsylvania Dutch Prologue and Day 1
