Ferry Crossing Record attempt:
18 Ferries, 5 states, 1500 miles, 36 hours

After nearly a year, it feels like time to hit the ferries again. My previous attempt went well, but I have since figured out some major tweaks to the route. If the weather and the ferries cooperate, I should be able to up my total to 18 in the BB1500, including 12 in the SS1000.
I had hoped that other LD riders might take a stab at breaking my old record of 14 and 11... but so far it looks like I am the only one susceptible to this particular disease. Maybe I made it too easy. Let me see if putting the bar a little higher makes it more interesting.
Inland ferries are a unique but threatened bright spot on the American roadscape - so I hope this ride captures the imagination of others and helps raise awareness of these gems of the back roads.
