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.

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

PengembaraThis 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.
Pengembarawe 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.
PengembaraThanks 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.
PengembaraThanks Jeanne. I hope all is well with you and that your life is full of adventures.
PengembaraIt 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!
