We left Noel’s place this morning to go pick up our bikes from Woodrow’s garage in Queens but when we arrived I then discovered that both my sets of keys were still on the upper west side of Manhattan Island…this was a problem.  Woodrow was nice enough to drive us back over and grab the keys and our stuff.  This 20 mile trek took 3 hours!  New York is crazy!

We finally got out of Queens around 3 pm which right around the time we got stuck in traffic.  Then with the traffic we also hit 2 toll booths.  In all, New York didn’t want us to leave!  However, we finally escaped its grasps and made it to Mystic.  It is only 125 miles but it took 3 1/2 hours!  Rough start from our easy past couple of weeks.

In other news, this is a little late, but how are our podcasts?  Are we leaving anything out that you all want to hear about?  Any new questions we should be asking?  Do we need intro music for our podcast?  Drop us a line and let us know what you think.

Miles today: 125      Miles Total: 12,600?  (I don’t have my GPS next to me to tell me exactly how many miles.)
