Lost link to long distance riders page
I'm hoping someone here can help. I lost my saved links list and am looking for
the URL to a rider making a long trip from Anchorage Alaska to the tip of Chile. I got the original link from one of the bicycle news groups and hopefully someone still has it. The last I heard was in July and the rider was in Canada. The main points about the rider is she had done a "face plant" on a trailer hitch while commuting to work. This accident encouraged her to go ahead with her dream trip. She had served in the Peace Corp. and was passionate about conservation. Her home base was East Coast, I think maybe Pennslyvania. TIA. |

Perhaps you could try it yourself as you knlw more about it than we do. Was she going solo or with someone? Got a name ? There are hundreds of people doing this trip. Good luck on your search |

I did not realize there are so many young women making these incredible journies. Like you I googled the info I had but after many wrong pages gave up. This is the reason for the entry in this news group. One of the cycling news groups is where I got the original link and was hoping the OP would catch my post here and recoginize himself. The last time I had visited the mystery rider's page, she had not posted anything for about 3 weeks in July. I was wondering what became of her. The rider that I was following is a yooung female solo rider traveling from Anchorage, Alaska through Canada, U.S., and Mexico. She planned to jump over Panama and continue her journey down to the southern tip of Chile. |

have you tried searching google groups? It searches all past posts of
nearly every post ever made... If you can remember exact phrasing you can pull up posts from years ago. whinds wrote: In article , "congo" writes: congo wrote in message ... whinds wrote in message ...
