First blog on the road

This is my first blog on the road. It has been an amazing journey so far and I've connected really well with everyone on the team. The route so far has been very challenging yet rewarding. We average about 80 miles a day with some rest days in between. Most days involves lots of hills, which has been the most challenging part of the ride so far. I am writing this blog in Everett, PA at a church we are staying at. The people here are very nice to us. They made us some fantastic food and provided us with shower and internet access. Our next big destination is Pittsburgh, hopefully we can make some impact there.
