Riding to Break the Cycle

This morning was back to “Normal”. Up at 7am, but this time I hit the “free” breakfast at the hotel. I was eager to get a jump on my tasks at hand and was planning to meet Eron today and see some sights and catch. I filled my bowl, plate and hands and carried my [...]

Today was back to normal… if only for an hour and a half or so. I woke up with the group at about 8:30, we got breakfast together, chatted like everything was as it was before. Phoebe returned and we hung out until the laundry gang returned. We packed all our gear up, I packed [...]

Yesterday was clearly a long day, I didn’t wake up until 10am and arrived in the kitchen to see Phoebe and the gang enjoying Phoebe’s breakfast birthday cake! Happy birthday Phoebe! The group started to thin out shortly after breakfast and I, in lazy mode decided to continue updating the blog, firming up my travel [...]

This morning was an early morning by my standards for a day off. We were up at 7 again as we had a presentation to do for the Global Catalyst Initiative at the Hub in San Francisco. Breakfast was the normal road food, yoghurt and granola, quick, tasty, and beneficial! Off into the downtown core [...]

I slept pretty poorly last night, I’ll admit. But waking up at 7 this morning was one of the best things I’ve done as far as mornings go on this tour. I woke up invigorated for the day ahead. Today was the day where I’d make my goal, I’d see the Golden Gate bridge and [...]

I woke up (naturally) just before 7am, feeling completely rested(for once) and excited at the prospect of the day ahead. Mind you, that was made much [...]

A rather crappy sleep last night. The tent was cramped, and I tossed and turned all night-long. Anyways, I made the smart move this morning and ate/made lunch before packing up the gear. More parfait this morning, and a ham sandwich with a roast beef sandwich for desert. We hit the road at about 8:45 [...]

Day 25 – Standish-Hickey State Park to Jughandle State Park   Good morning Sunshine! Literally, we had sunshine this morning, and thanks to our camp site farther from the sea than we had been yet, it was actually quite warm still. This thrilled me as we were heading for “Leggett” which according to all the [...]

Last night just before bed, Michal floated the idea of having an early pod, meaning a group of riders who would plan to be up significantly earlier than normal. This idea seemed to be popular though and only Danielle and Sarah opted out, as such the rest of us woke at 6am to hopefully hit [...]

Today was a good morning, off the heels of a wonderful day in Arcata and a great sleep to suit. It also started with Michal and Sarah making us breakfast:  Eggs with Spinach and green Pepper and some toasted english muffins. We left the church at about 8:30 am and took a few pictures before [...]
