This is our biking trip from July 21, 1997. We biked through Franconia Notch State Park and the White Mountain National Forest from Franconia to Lincoln and back again ... just over 30 miles total, through the mountains both ways.

Chris and Jamie get their bikes ready to ride ...
This is us after the first big climb (Three Mile Hill): Jamie, Chris, Mark, and BJ, respectively (courtesy of an automatic shutter).
This is a shot along the Franconia Notch Bike Trail, which is a paved mini-road that extends 10 miles or so through the mountains.
This is another shot along the bike trail. It was a nice day.
We stopped along the way to hike a trail in Franconia Notch; here we are at the summit of Artist's Bluff.
Here's another shot from Artist's Bluff, looking out over Echo Lake towards the Cannon Mountain ski area.

Statistics (from Chris's odometer):

Note: Chris says these could be underestimated by as much as 20%. The average speed includes anytime the bike was moving, including when it was walked through a "bike walk zone".
