So me n Liz are thinking about doing a bigger ride next year, as much of a cunt Trump is we both love the western u.s and prob best to see it now before he tarmacs the whole place.
As much as we'd like to do the great divide mtb route it's probably a bit hardcore for our tastes so we're looking at the Sierra Cascades route. Similar distances but far less remote.
Luckily there are tons of blogs of people that have done it to trawl through but was wondering if anyone on here has done it?

We're not fussed if we manage the whole thing or not, 35-50 days seems to be the average but we'd prob take a couple of days in Yosemite to go climbing so depending on how long we could take off work we might trim the start and finish off the route.

That looks like a great route through some cool towns. Adventure Cycling Association is great!

Wow that's cool, having spent loads of time in the Sierras I had totally no idea there was a "bike" PCT!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
