Today we had another late start to the day, and started packing up. We all had a great nights sleep…engines braking from trucks, loud trains, and the bright lights. Luckily our spirits were still high because of the feast we had the night prior. We set off around 7:30am to breakfast, and stopped in Elmore for food.

I had poached eggs, an English muffin, and some hot cakes. As usual, I had plenty of time to digest because my associates needed to make an appointment in the restroom! The riding today was flat and not too windy, so we knocked out most of our miles pretty quickly. Unfortunately, a squirrel fancied the design of our new tires, and I firsthand got to test out my nonexistent suspension. I hope it’s okay! We soon got close to Toledo, and were allowed to observe an oil refinery visually and nasally.

As we got closer to Toledo, our route seemed to zigzag through neighborhoods that weren’t busy. We then proceeded to perform the bike trip take-a-lane-of-traffic-and-cross-a-busy-bridge move, which I must confess is one of my beloved favorites. Tonight we’re staying at a Boy Scout camp and Mr. Hankins is treating us to an evening filled with culinary delights.
Supper tonight consists of his world renowned BBQ. After supper, we’ll probably check in to the Hilton rather early tonight because we have a big day tomorrow. Daniel Gulisano signing off.
