Little Falls, NY

Wow it is now Friday and the countdown is near. For those going to Portsmouth NH on Tues this is the plan for the group.

On Tuesday, July 28th they will depart the hotel around 7:00am for a 62 mile ride to Wallis Sands Beach in Rye, NH. All the riders will meet at a Junior HS about 2 miles from the beach around 11:30 then they will have a police escort to the beach. This is an estimated time and hope to be at the beach just after 12:00 noon.

I spoke to Marilyn tonight and she is having a visitor tomorrow, me. Because I can't take Tues and Wed off next week I am going to meet her in Latham NY Sat afternoon. I hope to take some photos and actually download some of her pictures.

The last fews days have been riding in the rain, not all day but some of it.

I found this You Tube post from one of the other bloggers on the trip and this will give you an idea of what it was to ride on Route 80 way back on June 18th. Kind of scary with all those tractor trailers zooming by. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IL1ptEDOCFI&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fleighscrosscountryride%2Eblogspot%2Ecom%2F&feature=player_embedded

Marilyn told me of a story tonight about one of the riders who helped a wounded baby eagle on the road, there are so many stories to tell......Until tomorrow.....
