Cleveland rocks!
Today we rode from Youngstown, OH to Cleveland, OH. We all rode separately until lunch time, but then we gathered at lunch and finished out the day together.



The ride into the city was pretty hairy. It was raining, and we had to be escorted by one of the vans. Some people didn’t like that we were taking up an entire land, and we had some choice words yelled at us, but we survived.



Once we got into Cleveland, we were pleasantly surprised to find that the ACS had gotten hotel rooms for us. It was nice to finally have a warm shower and a bed to sleep in, even if it was only for one night.



We headed for the Hope Lodge for dinner, which is a place where people can stay while in town getting treatment for cancer. We ate with a number of great people that were staying at the lodge. After dinner, a few of us went down to little Italy and mingled with some of the great locals before we retired for the night.
