Ann Arbor, MI

The ride to Ann Arbor was pretty fun. Jim Rampton's dad was a ride along today and since I was in the sweeps group which has to finish last we took our time all day and just goofed around. Our Lodging for the night was Jim Rampton's house, which was pretty packed, but I got to sleep on a couch instead of the floor. Most of us were able to explore the downtown area of Ann Arbor, which seems to be a pretty big city. I didn't get to see the BIG HOUSE, but I saw the outside and it looked like they were adding more seats. I don't know how they sell out every game.

So today we rode to Toledo Ohio where we had one of our more larger arrivals. There wasn't an Ohio state sign, hopefully we can get one when we head into Pennsylvania It's always nice to hear people cheering for you after a long ride. We had a great dinner at Outback Steakhouse followed by a massage clinic visit. So one of our sponsors allowed us to get each get an hour massage. It was a little interesting, I mean I have never gotten a real massage before. So I go in there hop on the table in my clothes. The lady says I can dress down to my comfort. I'm like okay. I get down to my boxers hop on the bed again, but then she tells me to hop under the sheet. I was a little nervous and confused. About 20 minutes into the massage I had to use the bathroom. I thought I could hold it, but it would not have turned out well. Anyway another half hour later I felt so relaxed. Tomorrow we head to Sandusky Ohio, yes it's the same town from "Tommy boy" I feel like I should watch that before I ride tomorrow. I bet there is a lot of stuff to do there "throw stuff off a bridge, late night pitch and put, maybe cruise the 4-h babes". I also uploaded some pics on my facebook
