Today started with some mid pancakes at around 10:00 am. Then the trip leaders let the trekkers free to roam the city. People went off with the buddy system and had fun romping around. At around 3 pm all the kids had to meet up to find out what was going on. We were supposed […]
After a much needed sleep-in from our near 90-mile day yesterday, we slowly made our way out of comfy hostel beds and started our morning in Montreal. Chloe and Katie got us French pastries from a bakery while we slept in, which we ate in the hostel common room and planned our day. We biked […]
“WOW!WE MADE IT!! With almost 90 miles under our belts today we have finally rolled in to Montreal! We woke up at a nice ripe 6:00 AM this morning but didn’t start pedaling until close to 10:30 due to mechanical issues and really good waffles. We had some bumps along the way like bent racks, […]
Today started off with us hanging out in our tents. It was very bad weather this morning and last night because of the storm Debbie. It was very rainy so we left the campground late morning at 11:30. Then we went to go get breakfast at some little mom and pop shop. We got some […]
Our day started with delicious wood fired Vermont bagels that Chloe’s mom delivered to us at our campground. Then we set off to bike across the Lake Champlain Causeway on our way to Plattsburgh, NY.

We got off to an early start this morning in order to make our ferry trip across Lake George. The ride was about 3 hours long and it was a very scenic experience. We passed many islands in the lake and learned about the natural and human history around Lake George. It was an up-close […]
The day started with an early wake up and a light breakfast of bagels and fruit. We stopped at a Stewart’s Shop a few miles from the campsite and got donuts and chocolate milk and played some games. We rode 20 miles through a very nice and paved bikeway, which took us to the Lake […]
The day started at 10 am after some very good hotel breakfast. Yesterday’s rest day was well needed for the 55 miles we did today. Today was the first day that the trekkers could lead the group to the destination. Today was a hard day to lead in the morning because of all the rain. […]
