It's 0530 -- what are you doing right now? Aaron and I are sitting in the lobby with a small apartment's worth of bike and other ride items. Susan and Mark arrived here around 4:30 yesterday afternoon after a long unexpected tour of New York City. We unloaded Mark's truck and met a couple of guys from New Hampshire and headed to Little Italy for some great pizza and um, well, dessert. We're riding 600 miles, right? How could one resist the temptation of the cannoli (or cheesecake) in NYC?
We are all meeting at about 0700 at the FDNY training center. From there, we ride to an EMS station in the Bronx for breakfast and send-off ceremonies. We then ride to Ground Zero and spend some time there. Then, we take the ferry over to Staten Island. We visit another EMS station for lunch and then we pack up the stuff and drive over to the Jersey border. I believe that is how it goes. Did I mention it is 0530? Yes, no caffeine yet but there is a Dunkin' Donuts down the street. You can take the girl out of yankee-ville but you can't take the yankee out of the girl.
