Entering into NYS this morning at 8:20 a.m. was a very happy moment for me. This is my home state. This is where I was born and bred for 21 years. This is where my parents, brother, sister in law, sister, brother in law, niece, Uncle, cousin and other relatives live. This is where I eat the best chicken wings in all the world. This is where the people I love the most in my life live. Tomorrow, will without doubt, be one of the most exciting days of my life. We will be riding into Niagara Falls, NY. As I mentioned, I grew up here for the first 9 years of my life. My parents live just 6 miles away in Lewiston, NY. I will be seeing them tomorrow. Today, I was on the bike at 6:20 a.m. We left Erie, PA headed for Hamburg NY 90 miles later. I arrived at 12:40 p.m. It was a beautiful ride, although some of the roads had a lot of treacherous pot holes--by no means a bikers friend. I now am at the Motel 8 right off the NYS Thruway. Tomorrow, a reporter from the Niagara Gazette newspaper, Dan Capalazo, will be photographing us, and interviewing for a story. I am so excited!! He wants to get a photo of us as we cross the Rainbow bridge, as we will be coming into Niagara Falls via the Canadian side. Truly thrilling stuff!! Todays ride was pretty, I rode with Annie, Milano, Jean, Carolyn, Mary. Tomorrow, is a short ride just 45 miles. Total Miles: 1,453.
