The Amish town of Funk

Today was a very big cross country climbing day…and all the riders could talk about at dinner were the descents.  The climbs didn’t phase them.  It was (once again) a completely beautiful day with moderate temperatures and no wind.  The rolling hills, fields, and gardens, each glow with healthy green color.

Great roads

We were so fortunate to find two shaded spots to open up the Feed Zone this morning and this afternoon.  At the second, we were at the start location of a Rails to Trails conversion.  Three members of MOB (Middle Ohio Bikers) stopped to talk with us.  They were in awe of our efforts and congratulated the riders on their accomplishment thus far.  In turn, they shared stories from their travels and rides around the world.  Very nice group of three men.

This evening in Wooster we ate at an amazing restaurant, the Broken Rocks Cafe.  Really yummy and a change from the usual for us.  So good, I took some pictures for you to enjoy!  (It’s not my style to write food reviews….but this was just too good not to mention.)
