Bicycle Touring The World: McConnellsburg to York, Pennsylvania, USA

My latest bicycle touring around the world update, cycling across the USA through Pennsylvania. McConnellsburg to York. 80 miles. I think I’m out of the Appellations now. This afternoon has been a lot flatter. I had one big climb first thing this morning, which was one of the reasons for stopping before my eighty miles yesterday. And then a few smaller ones, but it’s been fairly flat since Gettysburg.

I think I’ve only got about two hundred miles to go before reaching New York. But the roads are starting to get busier. And there are a lot more freeways, which is a real pain. It’s hard work finding a route that doesn’t end up on one.

I thought for one minute that I was in trouble again tonight. Luckily, it was for something else and nothing to do with me. The police were at the motel when I arrived back after supper. I don’t know what was going on, but there was a few police there.
