Dartmouth football coach Buddy Teevens veered northeast on the 18th day of his cross country bicycle trip, racking up about 160 miles from Jamestown, N.Y., to Canandaigua in the Finger Lakes. The 500-page Rand McNally mileage guide here in the home office of Big Green Alert/Buddy Bikes Division, has Teevens at 324 miles as the BMW flies from Hanover. (If you are a bicycle rider, your mileage not only may vary, it will. And it will be higher.)
He may -- or may not, because he is weighing two options -- follow one of my favorite roads, Route 20, all the way to the Schenectady area. If he does, he'll pass near Hamilton, N.Y., home of Colgate, and not far from Cooperstown. Check in tomorrow for a full update on Thursday's ride.
