Greg just completed a 49-day bicycling adventure of 2,402 miles from British Columbia, Canada to Baja California, Mexico (BC 2 BC). Adventure Cycling Associations (ACA) newest -- and arguably the hardest -- route in their 40,000 mile network of mapped trails is called the Sierra-Cascades bicycle route. The fabulous maps take cyclists along the paved-road equivalent of the backpackers' Pacific Crest Trail. The challenging, arduous route takes you along the spine of the volcanic peaks of the Cascades www.AdventureCycling.org dramatic scenery of the Sierra Nevada.

Mileage-wise, the PCT at 2,650 miles is a tad longer than Adventure Cyclings' 2,389-mile Sierra Cascades Bicycle Route. Plan your trip as stunning mountain scenery awaits!

gMack cycled with his buddy Gregg Bleakney (see his stunning pics/website at www.gbleakney.com).  Gregg got this cover shot selected for Adventure Cyclings' 2011 Tours Catalog! His stunning photo of the lake and me was taken at Crater Lake on October 13th. Take a siesta in a dramatic spot on the hottest October 13th ever recorded at Crater Lake and look what happens!  You end up on the cover of the Rolling Stone...or even better, the Adventure Cycling Tour Catalog. Consider taking one of their fabulous tours by going to www.AdventureCycling.org!!!  I can attest to the wonderful job the cartographers have done and have heard a ton of positive feedback from participants on their tours.Spread the Adventure!
