Barbara Curtis & Pam Culbertson of Warrensburg rode Adventure Cycling's Southern Tier route last January, about 3500 miles of self-supported touring. The ride was a fund raiser for Habitat for Humanity of Johnson County. Here is just one excerpt from their ride journal:
We did one exceptionally difficult day between Comstock and Sanderson--about 90 miles uphill, but the spaces are large with "scope for the imagination" as Anne would say, the roads good and traffic greatly decreased. We also have good shoulder. Between Ingram and Camp Wood we did some incredible climbs. Probably the most difficult of my cycling career which includes some steep stuff in Appalachia! |
