Today was another very relaxing and fun day. I started out and rode most of the day with Ane, which was a lot of fun. For the first 30 miles or so, it was on the same bike path, which kind of got a little tired and monotonus because it was all the same views, in the trees, along the river, which dont get me wrong, was really cool. We were so lethargic and slow getting started that we stopped at a bench and sat and enjoyed a peanut butter and jelly together. this was invigorating and we continued down the path. A couple miles later, we suddenly came to a large clearing which turned out to be this gigantic bridge that hat to at least be a couple hundred feet high and about half a mile long. It was just amazing. The rest of the day was on back roads through the picturesque mountains of pennsylvania. It was a good change from the bike trail and I really liked getting back to the climbing and decending and constantly changing scenery. About midway through the day, we came up to the Flight 93 memorial. This was very moving and was definitely an experience to see all of the different memorials and things dedicated to this. Towards the end of the day, after a lot of climbing, we came to a decent with really big warning signs, and even a map of the turns for driver's reference. This was what I liked to see. Unfortunately, my computer was broken today, so I wasn't able to get an official maximum speed, but Jodie was almost going 50 mph and I was definitely catching up to her on the downhill. Ane and I rolled into camp today with Jodie singing the Halaluia chorus and then we were surprised to see that someone anonymous had donated ice cream for all of us (thank you). Dinner was papa johns pizza. After dinner we were treated to a tour of the canondale bike factory which was conveniently right at the enterance to our campground. It was really amazing to see all that goes into making a bike that you wouldn't even think about. How the bikes start from shelves full of metal tubes and they turn into top of the line bicycles. Pretty cool stuff and really interesting for the engineering types such as myself. We got back from the tour and pretty much went right to bed after that.
