So we started out Day three for our Second 100 mile day. The first 100 miles yesterday was tough, but doing the second 100 was allot tougher. We were all sore, tired and John and I were bruised up from a few falls from the bike, but we pressed on.
We crossed a few bridges and rode thru alot of countryside as we traveled the outback farming communities in Delaware and Maryland.
We were glad to get to the finish line today as we came to our Hotels in Annapolis. To count, here are our sympathy vote totals:
John Lyon: One crash from his Bicycle
Mike Peek: Two flat (at different times) tires on his bike
Jon Blind: One flat tire, and two falls from his Bicycle
So Jon wins out as of day three.......
The video is in the works for Day 3, so if it isn't up yet, it will be soon.....
One day left in the Police Unity Tour. Tomorrow we ride the 60 miles from Annapolis, MD to Washington D.C. as we meet up with all 1,200 riders at RFK Stadium and ride into the National Law Enforcement Memorial together. We have all been told by other veteran riders that tomorrow will be an emotional day as we remember why it is we are doing this ride and honor our brother Law Enforcement Officers that have paid the ultimate price and died in the line of duty.
Tomorrow will be a day I will be thinking of Deputy Shandon Wright, Deputy Kent Mundell, DOC Officer Jayme Biendl, Ranger Margaret Anderson, and Trooper "Tony" as the three of us finish at the Memorial walls.
Come back tomorrow to see the finish of our ride.
