Scranton, PA

I'll be writing tomorrow's entry, and we'll hopefully be able to post it soon. Internet access is less than consistent. Ok, enough on that.

We're all greatly enjoying our first "day off", which started with an enjoyable gross-matinee (8:30!). I biked pretty hard all week and racked up 380+ miles already! Thursday's ride was a great beautiful and hilly 76miles into White Lake, NY. I pushed it hard most of the way and really felt it on yesterday's 74miles.

The group I'm traveling with is absolutely phenominal! We're bonding unbelievably quickly and all getting along great. I think it's working out significantly better than any other group trip because at the heart of it we all are passionate about biking and community service.

We are quite busy each day, with very little (if any) down time. Our day starts with packing up and breakfast, then biking, eating, biking, eating (etc...), showering, eating, presenting our cause to our local host, bike maintenance, and sleeping. Yeah, busy. Yeah, a blast!

Wishing you all the best!

You sound very busy with all that eating and biking and stuff... Glad you threw in a shower now and then as I'm sure your group is!

Hope you take photos when possible!
