Day 2: Up Up Up…
Once at the top, we camped at Ft. Mountain State Park. Brig and Daniel Hart, friends of the home and fellow bikers from last year’s Cycling Challenge, joined us and cooked up some steak and chicken, baked potatoes, and salad. Delicious! (Especially after the day we had on the mountain!)
We did have quite a bit of technical difficulty… our XD card in our video capture camera somehow got corrupted. We’ll try and salvage those files when we can get to the proper equipment. Our boss for the day - Drew, the Other One - had some great footage. So we owe him a great big “I’m Sorry That Your Video Files Got Corrupted.” But you’ll see more of him on the rest of the ride.
We also had several parents and friends join us or help us out. Nate’s parents and relatives cooked up a terrific lunch for us. Edwin’s family joined us as well later in the day and helped us up the mountain. We’ve had the honor of having PAYH Trustee Dr. Cosio and his wife, Deanna, with us. They’ll be with us until tomorrow. Doc has been riding right along with us and Deanna has been a huge help to Michelyn and Sam, our support in the “automobiles.”
Thanks to everyone who has helped us out!
