Today, normally a big GAP day, Saturday in October but we hardly see anyone this day. I suspect the fact it rained all day, temps started at 50, dove to 40 and wind picked up, may have had something to do with it. It was a day of highlights, the 1908' Salisbury Viaduct, 909' Keystone Viaduct, Eastern Continental Divide at 2392', Mason Dixon Line, 3294' Big Savage Tunnel and the 957' Borden Tunnel. By the time we reached the Big Savage Tunnel, the wind started to howl.
Downhill finally. We had been riding uphill for 116 miles and here is the downhill. What a welcome sight.
Will is sporting new booties. It was not raining in the tunnel so we could get a few pictures.
Finally, the station at Frostburg and the end of our ride. We cancelled plans to ride the final 15 miles downhill into Cumberland when the forecast said rain and 40 degrees. I had no more dry clothes to wear anyway.
