« on: March 31, 2011, 07:03:57 am ».... you want to be able to mount the pannier toward the back of the rack.Assuming heel strike is not an issue, why is it preferable to mount panniers toward BACK of the rack?

« on: March 30, 2011, 08:39:27 pm »No, there isn't any "on-the-ground" symbol that one can use to follow ACA routes. And more and more government entities aren't allowing folks to mark pavement. For example, Summit County in Colorado won't allow any groups to mark the roads within the county.Yep, unfortunately.

Routes / Re: Bannack State Park
« on: March 24, 2011, 06:32:13 pm »
As Indyfabz pointed out, found plenty of info re Bannack SP over on CGOAB. While it is 4 mi offroute, it is downhill & mostly paved. 
And they seem to find room @ campground for us cyclists. And looks like cool place for those interested in history of American West.
Yeah, I have Twin Bridges marked as "must do".
Pete, thanks for headsup re Patagonia outlet. I'll see if I can assist with the economic recovery.
On the subject of moseys, northern MN has lots as big as hummingbirds!

« on: March 24, 2011, 09:31:08 am »
Bannack SP is approx 4 mi off TA route between Jackson & Dillon, MT.
Anyone have experience reaching the park from TA route and camping experience?
What about it as a rest day?
Thanks!
