The past few days have been grueling when it comes to biking. We have gone through three sets of mountain ranges with high mileage each day. Amish and Mennonite country was super exciting (horse drawn plows and farm equipment!). And even though the climbs are hard, the views are amazing.
I will try to take more photos on the road and actually post them on facebook and picasa
Unfortunately I got sick recently and had to take a day off after completing the century day(100 miles of riding in one day in mountains). I pumped myself full of day quill to get through the century and pretty much collapsed that night. The next day I felt so horrible that I rode in the van and the leaders yelled at me to go to sleep as soon as I got to the host location. 10 hours of sleep later I felt much better and biked the next day.
Now we are in Pittsburgh and have a day off! It is a much needed rest for everyone, and we're all excited to check out the city and get out of our chamois and spandex(if only for one day)!
