Welcome to our blog

Glad you chose to visit our blog that documents our trail as we bicycle from the Niagara Falls area to the east side of Iowa, then join up with 10K bikers for RAGBRAI. We are following the northern tier route from Adventure Cycling Association. We have 2 vehicles (40ft RV and a Jeep). The normal days ride involves the logistics of driving one vehicle approx. 50 miles west, hopping on our bikes (pulling a trailer with our dog Zin), riding back East to the other vehicle. This way we get to ride together, take advantage of the prevailing westerly winds and stay in the comfort of our RV. Hope you enjoy the ride!

Day 3 - Erie, PA Homstead


No biking today, instead Kevin and Theresa took over the Brace living room and where on calls for work and catching up on emails and such. The RV is being looked at today and we should have some sort of verdict later today.

We took complete advantage of the accommodations and did laundry and let Zin enjoy the large yard from the extent her cable would let her. She was very jealous of Hank, a large golden retriever, as he had the freedom to roam the yard controlled by an invisible fence. We did experiment with attaching Zin to Hank with a leash and letting them walk around the yard tethered to each other. It was entertaining to watch as Zin would get close to the edge of the yard, Hank would just refuse to go any further. Hank is about 80 lbs so he always won that tug-o-war.

Tomorrow maybe a short ride, although we have some work to do as well as run back and get items from the RV and get to the store. We also made contact with some other friends who live here in Erie and will be meeting them for dinner.
