Mark Mansell Cycling for Leader Dogs

I met Mark Mansell Monday afternoon as we neared the Adirondacks. Mark is a member of Lions Club from near Portland, Oregon, cycling from Portland, Oregon to Portland, Maine. He is raising money for Leader Dogs for the blind. He has already raised more than $60,000 Learn more about Mark and the program at http://www.CyclingForLeaderDogs.org.

Mark is pulling a Burley trailer to stow his gear. We had a very enjoyable time riding together and camping to nights.  Mark plans to be in Portland to finish his ride this coming Monday. Then it is back to responsibilities as a school superintendent.

In Booneville, New York a lady ask if I had a tool to open a special remote device her friend needed to drive. The batteries had failed. My tools didn’t fit, but Mark had one to do the job.
