Title: 50 Best American Adventures Post by Killer Bee on Apr 16th, 2009, 1:04pm Nice article in this edition if National Geographic Adventure magazine regarding the 50 Best American Adventures. 5 of the 50 adventures are bike rides. #1-Biking the Continental Divide(most of the ride is on doubletrack forest roads, with some smattering of asphalt). Oh,there's 200,000 feet of climbing(7 Mt Everest's). #7-Biking RAGBRAI-Momma Loon will be looking for you John S. 10,000 riders,25,000 ft of climbing. #16-Mountain biking Durango to Moab. Weeklong mountain bike expedition. 215 miles #29-Bike the Death Ride(California), 129 miles,15,000 feet of climbing. Most demanding road race. #39-Bike the Maak Daah Hey(North Dakota), 96 ,soon to be 176 miles of singletrack in the Badlands. |
