We started today with 28 miles on the Western Reserve Greenway Trail. It was a nice ride. The trail is quiet, wooded - and flat!
After we left the trail, we had about 20 miles to our hotel in Hiram, OH. We rode past many Amish farms and many Amish families out walking or riding in their buggies. A few miles before Hiram, we noticed a skydiver in the air above us. We soon came to a skydiving club with a lot of people there to go up and parachute and a lot more who were there to watch.
We stopped and talked to one family who've been coming here for years. The dad said he'd been skydiving for 35 years and today his son had done his very first jump. The two of them were enjoying celebratory cigars.
Tomorrow we plan to meet up with a tandem couple whom we first met at a tandem rally in Florida for a mini Ohio tandem rally.
Today's ride: 49 miles (79 km)
Total: 4,324 miles (6,959 km)
