Thanks to a daring in-flight refueling to get around the pathetic range of the sidecar rig, we were able to make it into Ithaca yesterday with only two legs, arriving about 3PM. I had very different expectations for the Eastern part of our trip, imagining mostly crowded freeway driving and a desperate push for miles. Instead, Cleveland turned out to be my favorite city, and New York state was topped only by Montana for beauty, open roads, and rural charm. We had a great final day on the bikes.
Jeff and I had a lazy evening and next morning recovering while enjoying Ithaca's gorges, waterfalls, coffee shops, and definitely the Cornell campus. I think we're both thrilled that the motorcycle part of the trip is over, but are looking forward to sightseeing in the city and a few more days with new friends and old.
