Bike to Bay to Dragon Boats

Lunch in Pemberville, Ohio, halfway to Port Clinton.

Could the annual Reeves Northrup Memorial MS Bike-to-the-Bay tour get much better than this past weekend s event? Can we make the final 20 miles be pain-free? Well, then the post-tour chicken dinner at the Lucas County Fairgrounds would not taste as good.

We finished the 150-mile trip from Maumee to Port Clinton and back relatively unscathed. There were slight headwinds heading to Port Clinton on Saturday, and mild heat returning to Maumee on Sunday. But nothing compared with last year s intense heat.

Next up, the Great Maumee River Dragon Boat Festival.
