Well, today was a crazy day… This morning we emerged from our rooms at the Holiday Inn Express, bleary but rested, for a warm continental breakfast. We were on the road by nine after meeting up with Lis’s delightful friend Eileen, who rode with us for a couple of miles. It was cool and overcast, […]
This morning we slept in until 8 (which was much needed after our 5:30am wake-up yesterday) and enjoyed a continental breakfast at our Holiday Inn Express. We slowly rolled out of the hotel (without panniers) aboard our amazingly lightweight bikes wearing matching t-shirts, bandanas, and fanny packs and headed down the road for some donuts […]
A 5:30am sunrise wake up, gifted the group time to explore the old ice house site on the banks of the Hudson. The sun rose over the trees, sparkling through the leaves to shine on our pavilion protected row of tents. We meandered through a Nutella, peanut butter and bread breakfast, sleepily stumbling through another […]
Today was a day which will live on in infamy.”-Navarro Dodge after rain began while he was riding up a hill. Our day began with a swiftness unmatched by any of our other wake ups. An 8:30 leaving time gave us an energy which led to the duties of the morning being finished by the […]
We are so close to NYC we can almost feel it in the air! Today, we left our campsite in Milford, PA and somewhere crossed back into New York but we were way too distracted by the ginormous hills we were climbing. Luckily today we had sunshine and no rain in sight, but our legs were […]
We had a wonderful last day eyeing each other in suspicion and feeling out the quarantine squared isolation zone. We made our ferry, where we all had a nap with the salt spraying in our faces. Getting to Boston felt bittersweet, but what was sweeter and not so bitter was celebrating the end of the […]
Today we woke up and went down to eat breakfast in the main lobby of our hotel. We started our bike ride at about 10. At lunch we ate hot dogs and fries. Some of us got cheese fries. It was good. We biked on the trail until we found a big waterfall and the […]
Today we started off our day with a luxurious breakfast at the Hampton Inn, eating everything from waffles and oatmeal to bananas. We got out on the road at around 9:15, and were quickly off to a good start, with Navarro and Gabe leading the way (our ‘points’ for the day). The road was pretty […]
We took off from our Crowne Plaza hotel and after breakfast we went by Princeton University and decided to explore the campus. After exploring for a little while we got back on the road. We passed a canoeing place and decided that the half of us that wanted to go canoeing would canoe for a […]
We woke up and had a very good morning with pop tarts and fruit for breakfast. We left bright and early, biked through Acadia and Bar Harbor and made it to the Trenton Bridge Lobster Pound for lunch! We had a high mileage bike ride day, but we got through it very efficiently so that […]
