Cape Cod/NES Trekkers Bike and Swim on Martha’s Vineyard

Posted July 29, 2023July 29, 2023 Teen TreksLeave a commentPosted in 2023, Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, teen summer camp

For breakfast this morning we had pancakes. We rode our bikes to Edgartown where we looked at shops and ate some food. On the way back and fourth from the hostel we took a bike path with many bumps and steep hills. We didn’t struggle too much on the hills since we were always at […]

Cape Cod Trekkers Bike to Martha’s Vineyard

Posted July 28, 2023July 28, 2023 Teen TreksLeave a commentPosted in 2023

Today we biked from Nickerson State Park to Hyannis to the Martha’s Vineyard Ferry, which was a total of about 21 miles. We biked down the Cape Cod Rail Trail for most of it, where we just made it in time for the 2:15 ferry into Oak Bluffs. The ferry ride was nice, and we […]

Ice Cream Soothes the ‘Chernobyl’-like heat on the way to Madison, WI for Across America Trekkers

Posted July 28, 2023July 28, 2023 Teen TreksLeave a commentPosted in 2023

69 miles today, 69 more to Madison. The heat was Chernobyl-y, and our thermal Geiger counters tutted disapproval as we hopped ponds from Kwik Trips to Kwik Trips for cool snacks and hot food. We’ve been surfing the heat wave by hanging 10 miles (or 20) and breaking like white caps on reefs. We snatched […]

Blizzards Kept the Hounds of Heat at Bay on Route to Lake Pepin

Posted July 26, 2023July 26, 2023 Teen TreksLeave a commentPosted in 2023

Our 98 miler became 85 due to high heat that would make Sammy Sosa blanche, on top of a rather languorous start made all the more tardy by early morning Jaenisch gambits on the hotel lobby Compaq Presario desktop. Once we cut power to the hotel and snapped our bungies twice for good luck, we […]

Across America Trekkers Braved the Seventh Ring of Retail Purgatorio

Posted July 25, 2023July 25, 2023 Teen TreksLeave a commentPosted in 2023

We have braved the seventh ring of retail purgatorio and ridden away unscathed, save for bruised pockets and battered baked goods consumed from infernal constructs such as Shake Shack and Great American Cookie Co. Our rest day at the Mall of America (MoA) saw us blessed with more friends and family hospitality — delightful lunch […]

Cape Cod Trekkers Explore Provincetown

Posted July 24, 2023July 24, 2023 Teen TreksLeave a commentPosted in 2023

The day started with a meet up on the harbor at Boston. After a ride on the ferry to Provincetown, we biked to and climbed up the Pilgrim Monument. We biked to the Bike Shack, a bike store, to pick up some supplies, then we ate lunch outside the store. After that, we went to […]

All Quiet on the Best Western Front as Across America Trekkers Make Minneapolis

Posted July 24, 2023July 24, 2023 Teen TreksLeave a commentPosted in 2023

All was quiet on the Midwestern front at St. Cloud’s Rivers Edge Park… Til the midnight bell tolled. Quietly nestled in our sleeping bags like stuffed stockings under the mantel, we lay blissfully unaware of the terrors that would soon unfold. Dark obelisks rose from the earth one by one, whirring to life with sinister […]

First Day: Cape Cod / New England Shore (NES) Treks

Posted July 23, 2023July 23, 2023 Teen TreksLeave a commentPosted in 2023

The Trekkers of 2 groups the Cape Cod Trek and the New England Shore Trek met this morning to begin their adventures. The groups embarked onto a ferry going from Boston to the far tip of Cape Cod, the town of Provincetown. Over the next 10-16 days this combined group of cyclists will ride the […]

Across America Trekkers Pushed Off Down Lake Wobegon Trail

Posted July 23, 2023July 23, 2023 Teen TreksLeave a commentPosted in 2023

The sound of miniature hooves clip-clopped atop our tents, rousing us like children on Christmas morn. Did our yuletide kahuna return bearing gifts of Lays potato leis and pineapple scented bike grease for our knitted stockings?? Or was our sense of urgency fueled by fears of drenched panniers? T’was the latter. The rain chimed the […]

Across America Trekkers Ride the Bike Trails Across Minnesota

Posted July 22, 2023July 22, 2023 Teen TreksLeave a commentPosted in 2023

Early morning pinballing round Fargo bike shops gave us a chance to warm the legs to the tune of 10 miles. Shaun fixed up his bike, Grace bought a new one and we then cracked off at noontide like frozen ropes from Roger Maris’ Louisville Slugger, adding 75 more miles to our little AM jaunt.  […]
