Today we biked from Wake Forest to the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill and now we're all in a church watching Cash Cab:



It wasn't a bad ride, and we passed thru Duke along the way. Very scenic and a lot of downhills (always good).

Yesterday, when we biked to Wake Forest, we got a little lost and most of us ended up doing our first century (100 miles). It was EXTREME and took from 8am to 6pm - yes that is 10 hours of cycling. I don't think anyone ever thought they could bike that much, but we all did it and basically crashed after showering and eating.

We are in Chapel Hill for 3 days - tommorow we will build with Habitat for Humanity and Saturday is a FREE day!!! Sarah has offered her house for a pool party because she lives around here and I'm so stoked. So stoked. I get excited just thinking about it as I peck away on my IPhone.

We also did our first bike clinic today. Basically we arrange for kids in the area to come hang out with their bikes and we teach them about basic bike maintence and saftey. It's a way to how back to the community that is nice enough to host us.

Ah a maildrop just came in. I need to go check and see if any if you love me enough...
