Bike & Build at the Berg Farm

We spent an interesting evening at the Berg's meeting 30 cyclists who are part of a Bike & Build team. (The Berg's son Isaiah is part of the team.) They are spending 2 months biking from coast to coast, spending one day a week on building projects, and also raising awareness for their organization. People notice 30 cyclists! They are traveling along Hwy. 2 across North Dakota, and on this day they reached Devils Lake. They were able to spend the night at the Berg farm. Many of them had never seen a farm before or experienced much of rural life, so the Berg's gave them tractor and horseback rides to show them some of the fun of living in the country!
