What Bike and Build is all about...

Bike and Build is a non-profit organization that raises money and awareness for the affordable housing crisis through the arrangement of cross-country biking trips. The organization primarily engages college students ages 18-25 on 8 different routes. Specifically, Bike and Build attempts to engage young adults in a life-long commitment to service and philanthropy by providing participants with a very intimate approach to the affordable housing crisis. For more information about the organization, check out their website at www.bikeandbuild.org.

Also, a very big thank you to everyone who donated to the cause. Each rider is required to raise a minimum of $4,000 and my current total is $6,770! Thank you again for your support!

Orvieto Part 2!

Some things to note: The last photo is of a well inside the catacombs. I told the people on the tour that there might be a Cask of Amontillado at the bottom, but I don't think anyone got the joke...and judging by your silence I don't think any of my readers did either.(Or should I say reader, thanks Mom!) The picture of the underground corridor really was as small as it looks. I had to crouch pretty low to move comfortably. Also, the frescoes inside the church were amazing and it was even cooler that they let us take pictures because many churches have banned it since it washes away the color of the fresco if a flash is used.
