Feeling Strong

46 miles



Out of coal country and into rolling farm land. Nicer roads have signs. Stores have food. Found first real yogurt at Kroger in Carrolton, Ohio.


Bicycle maps of Ohio from Columbus Outdoor Pursuits are a mixed blessing. Today's back roads route was better than the state highway, but the campground locations and road names are often wrong on these maps. We went 8 miles past our intended campground before we realized the map was wrong. Today was supposed to be a short day.


We have started seeing signs on the bike route and the landscape is levelling out. We are out of the hills for a while. My legs are sore in a “getting stronger” kind of way. Today was our 6th straight day on the bike. Feeling pretty strong. Maybe we’ll take Sunday off. We got some U.S. flags for the bike.
