On January 13th, 2022, I hopped on a plane to begin a 44 hour series of flights and layovers that would take me to Tanzania. Can you believe it? for embark on a 75 day tour of Adventure Cycling Association’s (ACA) Northern Tier bike route. The route is almost 4,200 miles long, with more than 111,000 feet of climbing, through eleven states and hopefully two countries. The ride starts off north of Puget Sound, Washington and cuts through the northern reaches of this great country until we arrive Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park on the coast of Maine.
