Day 18 – Ontario to New York to Pennsylvania to Ohio to Illinois to Indiana


This morning we loaded up the van and started our return trek back to California (only with a slightly different route, so we could see more States, of course).

Amazingly, we traveled crossed quite a few Sates.  Plus, we even hovered along the border with Michigan for a long stretch.

In order to continue our bicycling challenge, we paused in Pennsylvania to ride across into Ohio, so that we could add them to our list.
Although there was no rain in sight (thankfully), Dave was still plagued by flat tires.  We stopped just inside the Ohio border to pump up the troublesome tire.  While we were sorting out the details of our final destination, the bike when it was leaning against the van, had a catastrophic failure (the tire blew!). It was just leaning there, but it made a Huge Bang! Fortunately, Dave wasn’t on the bike at the time.  Once again, Dave replaced it with a new tube and we completed the ride.


The fresh continuation of our driving excursion across many State borders brought us, in the end of the day, to Indiana.
