The adventure BEFORE the adventure - Day 3: Lancaster, OH to Ludington, MI

Was able to install my Ortlieb handlebar bracket without any trouble up until the point of cutting off the excess cable. Not sure what kind of wire cutters were required, but the two pairs available to me were not the best kind.

Kim and I had a very productive morning at Mom's house, where I sewed up the straps on my old Teva sandals because I'm too much of a cheap bastard to buy a new pair. Then I showed my feminine side by doing a load of laundry while Kim showed her masculine side by doing last minute work on our bicycles.

An important skill for every confirmed bachelor.

Charmaine RuppoltI have put Super Glue on parts of my Keen sandals that I have had for probably 15 years! They are so comfortable - I'm using them as long as I can!!

We said 'good-bye' to my Mom at 11:00 and drove nine hours to Ludington, Michigan, where we ate at the 'Kountry Kubbard."

Yet another leg of the road trip portion about to begin

Then we met our Warmshowers host, Juliann Murphy, at her new house, and packed our panniers for tomorrow. The REAL adventure begins tomorrow.
