 Solatary Journey
BY MARJ LOCKER Michalle (Mickey) Gilbert isn’t afraid to strike out on her own and for 3,500 miles riding a bicycle, she is proving that. On day 24 of a bike ride that began in Portland, Oregon, Mickey made a pit stop at the Ludlow Lions Ball field after being flagged down by the irrepressible Johanne Blackburn and her friend Marj Locker.
