Hello!

Hey all, we are in York, Pennsylvania as of right now! Both Kyle and I would like to once again thank all of you for the unconditional support throughout our trip so far. Even though we've only been on the road for three days, we feel that we have learned A LOT already about touring. We spent last night just outside of Valley Forge Historic National Park, roughly 80 miles from where we wound up tonight. Tonight we are fortunate to have had a shower, and a roof over our heads (plus free burritos), so of course things are pretty good for us right now. More updates soon hopefully!

Tomorrow!


Tomorrow is the day! We will be leaving from the Ocean Grove Fishing Club Pier, at 10am. A local Starbucks will be there selling iced coffee, and donating all of their proceeds directly towards our fund! Also, we are strongly urging anyone who is able, to bring their bike and help send us off. please check this site, and our myspace (myspace.com/pedalingforalfie) whenever possible for our updates from the road. We would like to sincerely thank all of our friends and family members, for all of their support. Please keep in mind that our ride is not just a ride for ourselves, but to help benefit the family of a dear friend to us!

Alfred J. Orlando Jr. has passed away on Monday, June 30th. Our deepest sympathy goes out to his wife Elizabeth, and their three children. Despite this recent loss, our Cross-Country ride will continue as planned. The Orlando family still needs our support, and positivity. We leave from Ocean Grove, New Jersey at 10am, Friday morning of July 25th. We will be leaving from the Ocean Grove Fishing Club Pier. We are strongly encouraging friends, family and supporters of our ride to help send us off that morning, so feel free to bring your bike and pedal us off as far as you wish. Bicycling is a community, and we would love to see that community come together to help a family in need. Thanks again for taking the time to read what we are doing!
