Day 11 :

It turned out to be a pretty darn good day.

I wasn't feeling 100% when I woke up, but much better than yesterday. I definitely wasn't staying in the same spot again.

I got an early start around 8 o'clock and headed toward Gold Beach. About 2 hours into the ride I was starving. I saw a sign for Black Forest sausage kitchen. I rode almost a mile thinking about what I was going to eat only to find out that they were only open for dinner. I was so disappointed! All I had for two days was nuts and tuna. I was ready for a meal!

Had to pedal 7 more miles to Gold beach before I got one.

After having a mediocre burger at the port cafe, I finally broke down and did some much needed laundry, and made a grocery store run. I may have also been procrastinating because I had another huge hill in front of me.

I wasn't feeling super great. I almost got a room for the night, but decided to tough it out and save the room for a rainy day.

I stopped for one last break before the big hill and had some Noosa yogurt. Well two Noosa yogurts:) By the way is delicious! I always thought yogurt was just ok. This is amazing!

After the yogurt I felt much better. I think I have been under eating. Evidently I am burning an insane amount of calories. So I can eat whatever!!!

I biked a long day of 49 scenic miles then stopped at Harris beach state park for the night. I got there just in time to see a beautiful sunset on the water, and barely got camp set up before dark.Read more
