Well, we did it. We made it out ouf PA, and crossed into Ohio. And then Ross broke two spokes :( So, we examined the damage, inquired at an insurance office near where we broke down about local bike shops, and set up camp for the night in their backyard, with their begrudging approval. The plusses of this situation-I got to bike down to the lake we had just passed for a swim, which was the first "shower" I had since last Monday. It was so, so amazing-I can't even beging to describe.
The rest of the night was a bit of a wash as it was raining, so after dinner (couscous, black beans, and green peppers, which i wrapped in a tortilla wrap smothered in hummos-really excited about having finally found hummos. I had been looking for days.), we all went to bed, and slept approximately 12 hours. We are now in Lineville, waiting for the bike shop to open. Well, Armin and I are here, but Ross is still walking his bike the 10 miles to town, hoping to hitch a ride at some point. Sigh. I hope this doesn't happen in the Dakota's!
So, out of PA again later today hopefully, and then tomorrow to a friend of Ross's house outside Cleveland. A real shower? And perhaps laundry? That'd be great.
