DH and I traveled to Ohio to participate in Tour de H20 - a charity ride that designed to raise money for fresh water wells in Kenya.

The day started off damp and chilly but at least it was not raining. We elected to ride the 50 mile route and it took us through some beautiful countryside. The route was well marked making the cue sheet unnecessary and the ride enjoyable.

Today also marked the baptism of both our bikes. DH's rode his brand new Ridley Excalibur and I enjoyed my day on my new Orbea Diva. Both bikes handled well and we had a blast though we discovered there are some adjustments that must be made in the fits - no big deal.

All in all it was a great day - we covered 54 miles, saw some beautiful countryside, helped raise money for a good cause, met some nice people along the way and enjoyed the day together on our new bikes.
