The second day of our trip was quite an adventure! While the heat wave continued we got out of camp bright and early. Cause we were making such great time, we decided to have a great time! We stopped at Las America’s for some fruit smoothies. Seis jugos naturales por favor. While we were passing […]
Our day began with Russell waking us at 7 to prepare for our 20-mile journey. Unfortunately, we had minimal time to recover from our the 50-mile trip the previous day which resulted in sore pains and aching thighs the moment we mounted our bikes. After roughly 15 minutes of solid biking, the group was warmed […]
Hot, hot, Hot! Today we did some talking about bike safety, group dynamics, and the drop system. After a long bike over lots and LOTS of hills we settled in to our cute little campsite at Croton Point State Park! To finish the night, we made tacos and took a swim. All in all a […]

Albany night 1 The NYM trekkers woke up bright and early for the 22 mile ride into Albany. A few more hills were the only thing standing in between us and our hotel beds and warm showers. Along the way we stopped to buy some farm-fresh strawberries to tide us over for lunch. Cruising in […]
