Aug 2

Today we rode from Confluence to Bedford, PA, a distance of 82 miles with 4900' of climbing.  The first 30  to miles were on a Rails-to-Trails route, in a treed corridor and nearly flat -- but after awhile, pretty boring.  Tomorrow we ride to Gettysburg -- 100 miles and a well-earned rest day.

A highlight of today was a visit to the Flight 93 Memorial near Strongsville. The permanent memorial is under construction and scheduled to open 9/11/2011.  Very moving experience.
