A Really Long Bike Ride

I met a real biker today. I was returning to the highway from one of the many RV parks I visited today and he and Max were stopping for a drink and a rest. They are trying to ride through every state in one year, David’s 51st year, from his 50th birthday to his 51st.

He is riding a Mountain style bike and pulling a baby trailer modified for Max when he isn’t running. Then he has another trailer attached to that one that has his gear. It is a pretty impressive rig.

They are in Colorado, their 18th state. He will be crossing the US 4 times. There has to be a shorter way to touch all 50 states than that. He will be flying to Alaska and Hawaii to ride.

Here is his website. It is a little behind, but you can see him and Max. http://www.bike50at50.com/go/index.php or just click on the Title of This post.
