Love seeing Niagara Falls pop up in random places. My home town.
Congrats on finishing the tour.

You road by my house! That’s an amazing journey and quite the feat!
This is amazing! Was this mostly trails? Would love to see a detailed route, looks like a great one.
Wow! Congratulations!! Nice bike!
Very much look forward to your report of the 800 mile return trip conducted in the dead of winter! Exciting times!
Awesome, well done!
Looks like you had a beautiful ride! Did you travel solo? Did you stay at camps / hotel / hostel? I plan to do the GAP trail or the Erie Canal sometime next year…would love any advice about the canal section of your trip. Congrats!
Nice! Mostly camping?
This is so cool & right in my back yard!
Thanks for sharing
How do you and the bike look so clean after all that? I’m a mess after 20 miles.
That’s awesome 👏🏼 Great trip.
I did Buffalo / Canadian side of the falls to Albany, this past summer. It was gorgeous. I bet even more so now without the heat.
Do you have any advice or feedback on load out or how you’d do things a bit differently?
awesome trip, we just did syracuse > albany this weekend, the foliage was beautiful!
I did a weekender bike tour two weekends ago and a weekend bike tour just this past weekend. It’s crazy that you started when I started my first tour and ended when I finished my last tour
Business in the front, party in the back lol
And on a full suspension bike too! How did you mount your bags in the front with the suspension fork? How was having all of that weight in the front?
Wow props for doing that on a full suss with trail bike tires. That would def drive me nuts haha.
