Bicycling to climb every mountain
Why’s everyone trying to make me look bad just ’cause I can’t ride?
Beware the ides of March, Caesar was warned. I say, beware the tourists. They’ll hur’ cha. Two stories for the tourists today.
I love Gene Bisbee’s blog. Not only is it in the Northwest (Seattle) but he seems to have sources around the world. I highly recommend reading him every morning, not just when I point something out.–Corrie
Bicycling to climb every mountain

David Sylvester is setting off this week on a quest to bicycle to the trailhead of the highest peak in each of the 48 contiguous states and climb to the top of each and every one. He’ll be accompanied by his faithful companion Chiva, a 2-year-old shepherd/husky mix.
If successful, they’ll be the first dog-human team to accomplish the feat. And you thought all the Earth’s frontiers had been conquered. Not with a dog, they haven’t.
