Day's 2, and 3

So sorry its been so long for me to do another post. It has been difficult finding internet connections so i have alot of catching up to do.

So our second day was concord to New London. Totall distance on this trip wa 35.75 miles, So a pretty easy ride after the grueling 1st day. I happend to be in a good position for the ride. The leaders assign "sweeps" meaning you stay in the very back of the pack and make sure everyone makes it to the destination. I was assigned as one of the sweeps so i got to take a really nice slow pace and just cruise along. I tried to take lots of photos by stopping often but at the end of the day i always want more. The ride was pretty easy. It was a cloudy day but the sceanery wasnt too bad and the ride was nice rolling hills. We stoped at a local flee market on the way and found some awesomly pointless things. We also found some useful things, including a swiss army knife and some 50 cent t-shirts for bike rags, i thought it was a pretty good idea considering we go through those things so fast. We also stoped at Warner Fire Station and tried on some clothes and climbed on to the trucks and everything. After that we made it to the lunch stop had some PB&J and the usual then since I was a sweep we stayed to hook the trailer up and pack it. We then had a very nice 10 mile ride to our church "Our Lady Fatima Chatholic Church". We Arrived around 1:30pm and at about 1:45 it started pouring, so we thought it was a good time to just nap. Sunday was also laundry day meaning about 5 group members set up 2 giant tarps and everyone throughs their dirty clothes into one big pile (pretty nasty because all of our bike gear is sweaty and damp). So these lucky 5 members stuff the van with the tarps and take it to a local laundry mat. Well coincidentilly one of the machines broke causing none of our stuff to be dry (or really clean). A group of us went to get ice cream and again it started pouring... So i guess laundry isnt really clean from that either.

Day (?) Monday

We rode from new london to Lebanon which was phenomenal (I will explain later). It was only 35 or so miles meaning we got into town a good 3 hours too early. It was a hilly ride but nothing too serious but about halfway through we ran into a wall of rain. It was a waterfall but we decided to keep riding. just made us get to the curch faster. We past Mascoma lake and some riders went straight up to Dartmouth since we were so close. Coincidentally Karen just got back from her Track trip to Ireland and London and she was at Dartmouth so we were able to meet up have lunch and hang out all day. Pretty cool suff. well it looks like i am getting kicked off my public computer in the library so i will tell you about the build stuff tomorrow.
