Mega Storm

I did not ride in the last few days because we had been without power for the last 4 days after a storm on June 24, 2010. I was the worst storm in a long time. Most of the roads were blocked by fallen trees. There were multiple power lines down.

I finally got a chance to ride today so I took my 21 mile route to Downingtown and back on Route 282 and the Struble Trail.

As you can see in the pictures there are some massive trees down. They got pulled up by the roots. Most of the trees have been removed from the road.

2010 Pedal to Preserve

Today I rode 21.0 miles in the 2010 Pedal to Preserve bike event. The event raises money to preserve farmland in Lancaster County. For a $25 entry fee you get beautiful scenery, a T-Shirt and a lunch. This is the fourth year that I have ridden.










There are two water stops on the 20 mile ride. They also have bananas and twizzlers. They also have 6 and 51 mile rides.












They route goes by many of the preserved farms.
