Binghamton to Scranton, PA 106 KM 640m Vertical climb
We We left Binghamton NY at 9:45 and
crossed into Pennsylvania 1 hour later.
We headed south against the wind all day. I am driving a new bike today – a Specialized tri-Cross. I guess it will be all right, but it is not
my deVinci. It’s sad to end a love
affair after 6 years of passion.
Bridge built by the Lackawana Railroad in 1915 |
My
new bike performed well as we climbed and descended all day. Pennsylvania met my expectations, an
industrial landscape with decaying industries.
The Lackawanna viaduct, despite being 100 years old, still is an
impressive concrete memorial. After the first16 km the highway we travelled became a nice, smooth,
well-maintained road and we cycled through PA in safety.
