Bicycle peddling Rotarians spent an overnight in Ada on Sunday after a 70-mile trek that day through part of northwest Ohio. Their goal: to raise $50,000.

Part of the group, pictured here, spent the night at Dick and Peggy Lawrence's home on West North Avenue. They included (from left) Bill and Kim Pepple of Bryan, Tim Broud of Toledo, and the Lawrences.

After the day-long ride on Sunday, the bicyclists were treated to a cookout at Gary Hull's home, then bedded down at the homes of various Rotarians.

On Monday, it was off to New Bremen for the group.
