While day one was a toughy, day two proved to be much more challenging. The hills were seemingly neverending. Just when you thought you had conquered the last one of the day, one would present itself behind a hidden curve...The good news is, this ride had TONS of fun downhills. I have to admit the climbs are seemingly worthwhile when you are able to fly downhill on your bike at 40 mph (it feels so good to go that fast!).
I've never been so happy to see a street sign in my life...
In Middletown we went to this awesome bike shop called Pedal Power. They helped a bunch of us our with mechanical stuff for our bikes an donated some powerbar bites for the whole trip! We are so appreciative of their help!
