This is our first chance to get online to post our blog! And to be quite honest...it will be a short one...because we are too tired and too sore to even type.
We departed Spencer for "The Watermelon Ride" on Sunday morning at 6:30am. To be honest we had no idea what we were getting into. It was tough...I'm not going to lie. But, when it was all said on done on Sunday...we not only met our goal, but met out goal in better time than anticipated. We arrived in Fort Dodge, IA (100 miles from Spencer) at approximately 3:30pm.
After a deep sleep with a wonderful host family in Fort Dodge, we departed at approximately 7am; destination....Cedar Falls. The trip seemed much more difficult...but, we met our goal once again at about 4:30pm today.
The experience is amazing. We are sore, yes. All the questions being asked are probably a "yes". But, at the same time...I think the trip is helping all of us to not only reevaluate life...I believe that we are in the midst of a life changing experience. And to be quite honest...I was ready for one of those! ;-)
My goal tonight is to spend a few minutes in the hottub and figure out how to download this blogsight down to my phone so we can begin sending more posts from the road and from our bikes....and even some photos and possibly video. For now...you can find us on twitter. www.twitter.com/iowalakessoccer
Wish us luck tomorrow for another 100 mile bike ride. 200 miles down...600 to go!
