The title says it all. We only made 25 miles today, but we got a lot accomplished. We are now in a two room suite at Best Western. We have a large front room with a couch and a TV, microwave and fridge. The bikes are parked there. Then we have a sort of dressing room with the sink. The bathroom is off of that. The back room is the bedroom with its own TV and a king size bed.
It’s regularly $119.
Carol had a coupon for $74

After my shower, I will post some pictures of our busy day, filled with repairs, shopping, and some really cool Gratuitous Train Pic of the Day©

Yesterday was mostly a really fun ride. Nice cool weather and scenic views. We felt like kids, rolling slowly along the shady trails.
Here we are leaving our beloved KOA

It was pretty windy most of the day. Check out that giant flag in the distance! US40 by Dayton International Airport.

Here’s a self portrait at the trail head in Taylorsville park

Did I mention we felt like kids?

Here’s a shot of the bike trail bridge coming into Dayton.

We also stopped in the park to eat and watch an inning of some good little league ball

52 1/2 miles today. Getting to be a regular thing.
We are safe and sound in the Hearthstone Inn (review) in Cedarville, state route 42 and route 72. We’re right on the bike trail.
Shower and food. More info later, including a review of the hotel (hint- its nice!)

Edit- news flash! Cedarville is a dry town! No beer tonight!

Chinese food right down the street before the stop light. Same side as hotel. New. Just opemned last week.

We’re moving on today, heading to points East, maybe Cedarville or Yellow Springs, (both near Xenia) if we have enough leg. Looks like a beautiful day. High in the mid 70s. The wind will be with us until about mid day. Seems like we’ve been in a perpetual head wind since we left. We went to the grocery store last night. There was one section of road about a mile long that we actually had the wind behind us and we were well over 20 mph! That was fun. For a second.
