ReisenderThis is exciting, I am happy to follow your trip. My great-great-great grandfather was Benjamin Waterhouse, part of the Underground Railroad in Kendalville, Indiana.
Reisenderwe will be going from the southern border of Ohio and angleing over towards PA and NY. I believe quite a bit will be ridden on the rail trails.
ReisenderThanks for sharing this with us. We are open to learning so much about this topic. It will be a challenge riding this route but nothing that can even compare to what the slaves endured.
ReisenderThanks Jeanne. I hope all is well with you and that your life is full of adventures.
ReisenderIt most certainly is full timing in a fifth wheel. I’m riding Rails to Trails everywhere we go. Looking forward to hearing all about your adventures. Rode the Western Greenway Trail in Jefferson Ohio for a portion today. Ashtabula Ohio had a part in the Underground Railroad. It’s a fascinating journey and story!

We haven't been able to get in as many long rides as we needed because of life and the weather. We have therefore opted for hilly routes and pushing the pace. Guess it has paid off.
