We have been wavering for weeks with where we will end this trip. Originally we were planning for Maine, then we thought about Connecticut (how cool would that be) and then we thought maybe we would just ride the TransAmerican bike route all the way to Virgina (it is the much shorter option). Well we have come up with a decision.
Drum roll please.......
We are going to end in Connecticut. Yesterday we switched trails and are now heading north on the Underground Railroad bike route. We knew we had to decide by Whitesville, KY and yesterday was the day we rode through the little town. We had to find our way to the other route with a little navigation, some help from locals and some luck, but we are on it now.
Here is an overview of what the route looks like:
and a link to the maps

Currently we are on map 3 in Corydon, IN.
We will later hook up with the Northern Tier bike route and then head south through Vermont. We have no bike route maps for Vermont, but at least we are well familiar with the roads and elevation changes.

Hi guys! Very cool that you'll end up at home! That makes all four of us either starting or ending in our home state! Have you had any flats since CO? How have you found the shoulders to be? We need to talk soon to have a proper catch up. Wishing you tailwinds and bearable temperatures! xoxox amy
