2015 Underground Railroad and Erie Canal Ride

9/24/15

Medina, NY to Rochester, NY 

46 miles 

An interesting statue at the entrance to the restaurant where we had our final breakfast on the road


Riding along the Erie Canal


A giant Apple along the Erie Canal



Medina Sandstone


Very pretty


Interesting facts along the canal


Marnie just pedaling along


Thank goodness it didn't rain because sections of the trail would have been quite muddy and slippery


Another bike shop to visit


Many miles pedaled along the canal


A view of the canal from the restaurant where we had lunch


We finally got to see one of the many lift bridges in action




We met Cam and Don Secrist, also Bicycle Adventure Club members, on the Erie Canal trail.  Don and Cam had ridden the 2010 Florida Ride with me and also the Flower in The Hills Ride with Marnie and Miriam, it is a very small world.


Arrival at the Holiday Inn Express in Rochester, NY....our final stop on our adventure. 

We made it!


Miriam flew out of Rochester and Mike met us at the hotel and drove Marnie and I back to Indianapolis. 

Once I picked up my truck it was an all day drive back to sunny St. Augustine, FL.
