Easy Riding

Back on a dirt bike after a 40-year absence. Pretty sure I wouldn’t survive a wipeout like one at UMass in 1982.

Over the Gorge

September 27, 2022November 29, 2022 edwardmcsweegan

Doing the Via Ferrata at Ausable Chasm in upstate New York. A little rainy, but still a pretty good two hours of structured climbing along the cliffs and over the gorge. Nice to know I still have my nerve and a few moves.

Prudence

August 26, 2022November 12, 2022 edwardmcsweegan

Biked around Prudence Island the other day. Reachable by ferry from Bristol, but you don’t want to miss the return ferry because there’s not much on the island. No inns or restaurants. No stores or gas stations. Just a lot of woods, marsh, deer, chickens and the occasional peacock.
