Day 19. Philadelphia to Middlesex NJ. 64 miles

     After a day of rest in Philly, it was great to be heading out on the road again, especially with 2 partners. The roads were quiet which helped everyone get used to their bike. It was stop and go through the city due to traffic lights. After that we got to experience road construction and one lane highways. Quite a variety to help get us to New Jersey.
     I think I missed some of the ombiance of the cities we went through. North Philly seemed alright and I couldn't figure out why Trent was nervous in Trenton. He kept wanting me to stop taking pictures and put my phone away. My clue probably should have been the guy who wanted to know how much his bike was worth.
     Our route was pretty flat which was nice. We did wait under a porch for a few minutes to let the lightning pass. It never did rain on us, but as we started biking again, we could see we were just behind the storm.
     We biked into Princeton in good shape and fairly early. I decided it would be nice to slice a few miles off of tomorrow's trip, so I headed out leaving Trent and Allison to explore Princeton with Larry. More flat roads as well as another muddy trail thanks to the rain made the miles go by quickly. Before I knew it I was at the edge of Middlesex. Larry picked me up and we went back to the hotel. New York tomorrow!!
