I was planning on riding IDBDR with a friend but above normal snowfall has us wondering if it will be open to ride the entire route. So as a back-up plan My wife and I are tossing the idea around of riding the MABDR. Plan is to leave @July 1 and return @July 14 trailering bikes out and back. Camping as much as possible. Slow but steady pace. If you are not familiar with the BDR routes, this one is considered the easiest of them all with a good mix of gravel, tarmac, and creek crossings. If anyone is interested in riding Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and touch New York.... give me a shout.
