Just a few pictures from our trip to Rome.

June 27 through July 9th, beautiful time in Rome.
 The Convent where we stayed

 The Coloseum
Just to be sure we were there
 The Pieta at St Peter's Basilica
 St Peter's from the Hill
 St Paul Outside the Walls
Virgin & Child
Tony & I spent 11 great days traveling in Rome, and I mean all over Rome.  Matt wore us out but it was great.  Now we know the subway system, Metro, Bus and trolley and all the important and architecturally beautiful landmarks of Rome.  I never did see where the Pope crept out of the Vatican at night to minister to the poor but i know its there.  I will post more later but for now here goes.

August 8 The End of a Perfect Ride!

Thanks for hanging in there for Tony, he made the Atlantic and dipped his front tire into the water. The bikers were overjoyed to be at the finish line, but this is just the beginning of a lifelong commitment for them to help others and spread the word! Final statistics for Tony’s bike trip across America Total days: 56 Total biking days: 45 Average miles per day: 75 Total miles: 3322 Less truck driving days and breakdowns (broken spokes, etc): 404 Miles biked by Tony: 3017 (probably among the top 3) Total broken spokes by Tony: 5 Total broken spokes by everyone else: 0 Total flats by Tony: about 13 Total flats by everyone else: unknown – one person only had 3 Total money raised to date: $5,088 which means somewhere in the Democratic Republic of the Congo an entire house will be built with the funds raised by my friends and relatives – THANK YOU!
