700 Miles!

Today I rode 7.0 miles at Springton Manor Farm. Although it was only 10 am it was already hot and humid. The Fantom 29 performed flawlessly.






I haven't been riding the Fantom 29 as much as I used to. I have primarily been riding my Raleigh Grand Prix rode bike. I really like riding the Fantom 29 in the Fall and Winter when the weather is cooler.

Storm Damage

Today I rode 12.4 miles at Marsh Creek State Park. The Fantom 29 performed flawlessly, but it took me a long time because of the number of downed trees.

On June 24, 2010 there was a massive storm in the area that knocked down a lot of trees and power lines. We were without power for 4 days.









This is an insulator that I found on the side of the road.













Many trails were blocked at Marsh Creek. Sometimes you could climb over the trees or go around it. But sometimes you had to back track.




















There was a guy with a chain saw doing some clean up. I am going to have to help out.
