August 6, 2008, Medina, NY

We rode 95 miles today into Medina, NY today in 6 hours 40 minutes averaging 14 mph. I was a guest in the home of Jim & Barb along with Tom, the oldest of the fast boys.

We got a quick tour of the town which included a look at the church in the middle of the street. The street had to be split and built around the church building. We also saw the only tunnel under the Erie Canal anywhere along it’s 400 plus mile length. The town of Medina grew up to service the canal but was also a great supplier of sandstone to the U.S. and many parts of the world.
