End of the Long Ride
September 30, 2007--T. Bill Simpson completes his cross-country motorcycle ride, finishing the trip on the cold blue Atlantic at Seapoint Beach, Maine, USA. He departed San Diego, CA on May 15 and completed the trip in 137 days, for a daily distance average of 24 miles per day. Of course many of those days were spent doing things other than cycling; in fact, Bill says he actually spent only 16 days in the saddle, which averages out to a respectable 200 miles per day. Nice ride, Bill. And nice carbon footprint.

Huntie bids Bill a fond adieu in San Diego.

Bill..
GREAT!!!
You know my love for 2 wheelers.
How I wish I could be on a bike myself. Rich fears that I may not manage to stay alive if he lets me get on one of those.
To his credit, we did rent scooties in Bermuda and covered whooping 24 miles ;-)

Dude,
Mano to mano, you need a new jacket, the purple just does not do it for me!
When you coming out to Van Isle? Hell, when is everyone coming out for a visit? If anyone wants to meet at Whisler let me know.
Dave,
We'll be there for Xmas. What's Whistler?
Charlie,
Looking forward to the visit from the family. Going to be great, you gonna go skiing up at Mt Washington? no ice out here!
Whistler Blackcombe is the largest ski resort in North America, its located 2 hours north of Vancvouer on the mainland.
