Livin' it up in Ben Franklin's town. Riding a bike in the city; damn! watch out for those trolley tracks (slippery when wet!) Whoa, that's what a hoochie mama looks like! I don't think I'm in Delaware anymore.....

OD'ing on Chocolate in Hershey PA

Went with Thea up to Hershey for her firms 80th anniversary celebration this weekend. We had a blast and really enjoyed the luxurious Hotel Hershey they put everyone in. The food was incredibly good and as could be expected, the deserts were good...too good as I had some lunch with my desert on Saturday afternoon and ended up with a thrashed stomach the rest of the day. DAMN the Reese's peanut butter pie was yummy, I'm still glad I ate too much, even though I felt bad the whole day and night!

Both Saturday and today we rode all along the winding farm roads which surround Hershey. Yesterday was a long slow ride as we got our bearings and busted out the map every 3-5miles of the ride, as since the firm was buying every meal, we didn't want to miss the 2 hour window for lunch. We barely made it back in time, as we became uber lost at one point, as we thought we were North of Hershey by a few miles and we were actually SOUTH of the town by a few miles...
Today the ride was short and sweet, just 25 miles of crazy rollers with sharp blind turns. It would've been a perfect course for a road race.

Gotta fly,

ride on,
