Corona Coast 2 Coast on the Southern Tier

Southern Tier on a Recumbent

By Alden Ho


#926 – posted Sunday April 19, 2020 by Neil Gunton

Amid the craziness of this Coronavirus, all cyclists that I have followed riding the Southern Tier have thrown in the towel and went home. All of them. But that maybe only the ones that are journaling here, because there still might be riders out there on the ST who are not registered here.

I’ve have been planning on this for many months now, and when the Coronavirus hit the end of January, the beginning of March we saw pandemonia hit the all the US riders and they abandon the saddle. Social media is screaming, “go home,” “stop spreading the virus.” But, is a rider truly infecting others peddling down the road?”

Whether you passionately agree or disagree with Alden’s decision to keep going on his tour, I think this journal uniquely reflects this rather extraordinary moment in our history. – read this journal
