Today we woke up and headed to see Frank Lloyd Wright’s Falling Water House. Most of the Trekkers found it really cool despite the massive hill to get there. After the fun look at the house we rode downhill into town to get lunch and do laundry. We stayed in the town all day and […]

Today we actually woke up and got out on time. After getting coffee at the port, we caught a ferry to Orcas Island and rode for an while up some big hills with two days of food on our backs. After Hurricane Ridge, this felt pretty easy. We went to the lake and had chicken […]
Hi readers! Today was an excellent day. Why? It was my birthday! We woke up at around 8:30 and grabbed breakfast (Comfort Inn bananas, muffins, pastries and fruit) as the steadfast smell of yesterday’s dampness permeated the air.

We started off the day with crispy bacon and the usual Honey Nut Cheerios with milk. We then packed up our stuff from the once beloved cabins and said goodbye to Martha’s Vineyard. After that we boarded the high-speed ferry and got hypnotized by the waves that passed by. Once we got to our destination […]
It was an adventurous, wet and wild day today. With 12 mph head winds and rain from start to end of the day, the group pushed through and made the most of a difficult 50-mile ride to Toledo! After a 20 mile early day ride, we stopped at a Subway for lunch and made friends […]

Today, we celebrated our highest planned mile accomplishment, with 64 miles […]
