Jan got a new Trek Edmonda and had a fitting! It was so exciting. There is nothing like a new bicycle and it has good hill climbing gears. We are going to need that.

We were so impressed with Jan's bike fitting that Kris and I decided to go through the process with our tandem. Michael with Trek in Ft. Wayne was absolutely amazing. It is going to be a game changer.

It looks like Rain almost every day this week. It sure makes it hard to get outside and train!
ViaggiatoreMaybe you should go to for a ride in rain. See if your rain gear is up to the game 😂
ViaggiatoreWe've done that many times but combined wit 40* and 15 mph winds makes it tough to get out there!
ViaggiatoreHahaha. We have rain gear. It is just miserable when it is cold, wet and windy!

ViaggiatoreThis 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.
Viaggiatorewe 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.
ViaggiatoreThanks 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.
ViaggiatoreThanks Jeanne. I hope all is well with you and that your life is full of adventures.
ViaggiatoreIt 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.

We survived the 1st night in an 80s themed hotel. A little sketchy but we slept. On the road again. MOBILE ALABAMA...HERE WE COME!
