On June 1st about 50 miles into the ride Brian and I stopped to get lunch at a Subway. We examined the map and came to the decision that rather than dragging out our trip another day, we were going to finish that night. So rather than going another 30 miles to the lake place, Brian and I rode 85 more miles to return to his home in Clifton Park. The journey of over 700 miles was completed in 6 days despite a crash, tidal force winds, and broken bikes. Brian has road rash all over his arm and a nice bruise on his hip. I was fortunate enough to only have abrasions on my hand. I will return to West Point tomorrow for Air Assault training and Brian will have time to recover at home.
Our journey consisted of:
A bike store without a bike pump
Three drivers who were very concerned about our wreck but could not so much as spare a band-aid
Niagara Falls
Train Track Falls
Religous and American History
700+ miles of beautiful land
High winds, strong rain, mountians, and valleys
Friends and Family
Adventure
Thank you to those who supported us along the way and thank you for following Brylansride!
