It’s Monday and Erika and I are one day away from California. Yesterday and today will be our two longest days yet. We left Bandon at 8am and landed in Gold beach (69 miles later) at 430pm. It was amazing to be along the coast. My top speed down hill was 36mph!! We also ran into Ian, a Australian who had just been swiped off the road by a car. He was lucky, unfortunately his bike was not. To date we have only met two cyclists on this trip. I pass the time on the bike making sounds at cattle and at times to myslef. I think about AK and the things I want to accomplish when i return. I also count bananas peels, orange peels and apple cores. Erika keeps pushing me, and I do the same. We just finished our oats breaky and had a cup of hot chocolate. Although i dearly miss coffee. So with breakfast complete, it’s now time to pack the tent and gear and head towards the Redwoods. STOKED! Also my iPhone is semi functioning again now that it has it’s backlight,. however still no camera
Oki is a machine!
