Today was Memorial Day, and therefore we dedicated our ride to David, an individual whom we conducted a Portrait with a couple of days who also served our country several times in the military. David has been through so much in his life, it was the least we could do to dedicate this ride to him.Our ride today was 59.6 miles from Ashtabula Ohio to Cleveland Ohio, but it ended up being about 6 miles more with the re-routes we had to do! Many of Ohio’s roads are under construction, and we always have to make sure that we are riding on a bike-safe route, so we had to do some improvising today. Luckily, we are becoming more confident on our bikes and are able to do that! We were also able to stop at Sheetz, an iconic east coast gas station with food that is definitely way above average for gas station food. Maybe it was not the most nutritious, but it was definitely delicious!Our stayover today AND tomorrow is the Peace Lutheran Church in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. They have graciously opened their doors to us for two days, because tomorrow is our first rest day! Having a rest day means that we do not have to get on our bikes, and is important for our health, as biking is extremely mentally and physically touch. Peace Lutheran Church provided us with showers and a Memorial Day cook-out, and we are extremely thankful for that.Today’s rider shoutout goes to Kirby!!!!! Kirby’s birthday is tomorrow and we are excited to spend our rest day celebrating him! He runs our social media and does an excellent job recording what we do each day through photos and posts. Kirby also is an extremely strong biker and it is great to catch a draft off of him, or to keep up a good pace with him.
