FOGBEE's Great Bike Tour to Grand Tetons and Yellowstone

.

12 years ago, FOGBEES made one of our best bike tours to Grand Tetons and Yellowstone.  You can read about our adventure in - Crazy Guy on a Bike or in - Indian Lake Peninsula Living magazine.

FIGHTING the MOUNTAIN, the MACHINE, and the MUSCLE

.

In the spirit of historic advances and competition between ever-evolving modes of transportation, the 3M Challenge features a timed challenge between two of Mountain Maryland’s oldest mechanized modes of transportation, the WMSR 1309 Steam locomotive, the largest operating steam locomotive of its type in the world, and the legs of cyclists. The 15.6-mile route is on the GAP between Cumberland and Frostburg.

The FOGBEE touring group has ridden the fantastic Great Allegany Passage (GAP) at least three times, just not in the direction of the 3M Challenge or racing the train. This year, Dave Irvine plans our reverse. We plan to follow his training on one of America's most scenic trails.

OLD JACK IS DAVE's MOTIVATION - DAVE'S OUR MOTIVATION

Our eldest FOGBEE, Dave Irvine at 88, wants us to know "he is not crazy!" Check out his motivational video above. Dave is training in 2025 (or 2026 or 2027) for the "3M Cumberland - Beat the Train."
