Just a few snapshots from the Maple City Century Bike Ride I did with Lee Curry from Around Town Bikes (in Wilkes-Barre) on September 25. With THREE route options (30, 62, or 100 miles) we opted for the 30 miler since these old mountain bikers, Lee and I, are not avid road bikers. With something like 2,400ft. of elevation gain made the 30 feel much longer. I think the 100 mile was nearly triple in elevation gain! Anyway we had beautiful weather on the entire ride and saw so many cool things. Too many to stop and photograph because I much rather concentrate on riding. And although the ride wasn't technically a timed race, I did want to finish the ride in under 4 hours which we did just about 4 hours on the nose. Perhaps next year I'll sign up for the 62 miler!
