Pirates of the Road

So we hit a new state today! I started the morning with Andrew and Angela, until Andrews rear derailer snapped in the middle of a hill. He had to get in the van because you can't fix that on the road. Angela and I continued until lunch.

At lunch I made the breakfast club - pixie stick and potatoe chips on a piece of bread. It actually tasted pretty good. We also pelted beth with water ballon and met an awesome dog named buster.

Back on the road and it was Nolan, Jaime, and Travis and me. We were pirates and would catch up to other riders, prepare to board and CHARGE! We used our water bottles as cannons and would take over their ships. It was pretty fun and we made really good time.

Usually when we come into big cities, the roads are a bit heavy, but we used a bike path today that was awesome!

Got to our hosts tonight and it was like home alone. Our hosts went out and left us here which was nice to relax!
