Ok, finally getting this done

Well, it’s been a while since I last posted and I completely left our trip hanging. But, since our 5th annual 150 mile bike trip is coming up, I figured I should finally get around to recapping last year’s. There was a pretty legit hiccup on the first day of our ride, which is probably while I left it undone for so long, but it’s well past time to get caught up.

So, the alarm went off early Friday morning to get us to the Amtrak station. The city (Pittsburgh) was still asleep. Heather and Maddi dropped me off at the train station and went to park the car before they pedaled back. Unfortunately, although we arrived bright and early for our train, it was delayed and we ended up waiting along for a while before finally boarded around 6 and taking off at about 6:30 a.m.
