The week leading up to today has been up and down emotionally. After our terrible ride 4 weeks ago. Things had not been going great. Tony's knee had been hurting and we were not riding as often. Last Sunday his knee really started to hurt and he was thinking that the trip wouldn't happen for him. We all were starting to be very disappointed. He decided last minute to get a doctor's opinion. We love our nurse practitioner. She is down to earth and wouldn't steer us in the wrong direction. She said it was his IT band. He had a second opinion with the same result. That doctor was humorous and said "so you were pulling a bike trailer up a mountain?" Interpreted to mean..."ok, no wonder your leg hurts, silly!" He hit up physical therapy and now we ride! We will be doing some stretches and icing everyday along the way but we are both feeling good about the trip.
What time is it? Road trip time! We gotta get to Maine to start this
adventure!
