We did the whole trip in September and it was Raining for at least two full days. 2 guys from DC, 2 of us from Pittsburgh, and one friend who flew out from Denver.
The guys from DC drove up in a rental car which we returned the night before. At the end of the ride, we rode our bikes straight out to the airport and picked up a rental minivan for a one-way trip back to Pittsburgh. The evening was spent telling tales and downing ales in Suburban DC before the drive home. It is a great ride. I didn't have a Riv, but Riv supplied my MUSA, wool gear, water bottles, Nitto Racks, Pasela Tourguards, and philosophy. :) --- On Tue, 1/5/10, Steve Palincsar <palin...@his.com> wrote: From: Steve Palincsar <palin...@his.com> Subject: Re: [RBW] Re: Goals for 2010 To: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com Date: Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 5:25 PM On Tue, 2010-01-05 at 14:11 -0800, Sean Whelan wrote: > Sorry, I live in Pittsburgh, and the tendency here is to refer to any > city within 25 miles of Pittsburgh as "Pittsburgh"... > > We started at Little Boston.

We stayed at West Newton (the first day was very short because it took so long to get to McKeesport - 3 hrs just to go from McKeesport to the Pittsburg Airport to turn in the rental van, then taxi back to McKeesport), Ohiopyle and Myersdale. My trip ended in Cumberland, but the rest of the group went on to do the Canal. I'm not sure where they stayed. My maximun day was around 45 miles. Of course, a day and a half of that was in pouring down rain, which definitely makes the distance seem a lot longer. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
