I bemoan this time of year as the “touring season” in the northern hemisphere winds down and the touring stories dwindle out for the winter. Every morning I look forward to those story and photos and the great experiences you folks have. With that in mind, I post a link to one of my road trips this year. Drive somewhere, cycle all day, drive somewhere else, repeat for a few days. Sorta touring. I did not actually pack the panniers this season but I’ve had some fine experiences.

I did pack the tent-n-stuff twice to go backpacking on the AT. First time in decades.
