Holiday Inn Express and Suites, West Mifflin, PA
Miles: 87 MPH: 12 Max: 30 Total: 3021
Woot Hoot!! We are in Pennsylvania!! Next week at this time, we will be asleep in our beds at home!
Jack got back about midnight! He slept in a bit, so I started today's ride with John. Jack met up with us for lunch, and we continued East.

| Ha Ha! Sleeping In! |
Pedaled in three states today!! Left Ohio, crossed the Ohio River, rode just a short distance in West Virginia, and then pedaled into our home state!! Yikes! West Virginia is hilly!
Rode extra cautious after taking a fall yesterday. Today's roads were not great -- lots of debris and rough surfaces. It was a slow go and after reaching Pennsylvania, and we decided to have John drive us and our bikes to a hotel for the evening. So we drove through the congested area of Pittsburgh and now have just a few miles to reach the Great Allegheny Passage in the morning! Can't Wait!

ReplyDeletesorry to hear about Jack's apartment debacle. Glad he made it back quickly to continue the journey. Also nice for John to get in on the ride. You are now back in familiar territory and where we met you guys. Your journey is almost complete and what an amazing one it has been. Memories to last a lifetime! never mind the amazing shape your bodies are now in. Isn't it wonderful how much you can eat and still be starving for the next meal?
