Let the Good Times Roll

If you live in KY then you know what a beautiful state we live in. If not then it's a must to tour the backroads of Danville and Harrodsurg. This is exactly what I did in September. My touring was spent on a road bike and a terry gel seat. My friend, Rendy, and I road the ShakerTown Bike Trek sponsored by the American Lung Association. This fundraiser raised over 130 K for their cause.....Fighting Lung Cancer.

This is a photo of us riding after leaving the Shaker Village, one of our overnight stops. We road for a total of 100 miles in a three day period. We had so much fun and plan to make it an annual event. Rendy and I met several wonderful people who have been doing this Trek for over 3 decades. If you are interested in the tour you should visit the web site www.kylung.org. go to ShakerTown Bike Trek and take a look.

It's a mini vacation on wheels! If you can ride 30 miles on a bike in one given day then you can do this tour. Rendy and I rode our 36 miles in about 2 1/2 hours. We had plenty of time and energy to spend the rest of the day at our leisure.

I could share story after story but we decided..." What happen's on the Trek stays on the Trek". Hee Hee

Is Rendy smoking cigarette while riding for the American Lung Assoc?
