Friday before our auction, I finished the route we are going to take to Maine and it looks like 16 days on the road with one day of no riding when we are at my brother's house in New Jersey. We have enough Hilton points to book Hampton Inns and Hilton Hotels all of the way up the coast except for the two nights we need on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. All rooms are sold out which creates a big problem if we can't find a place. We were going to take 2 days to do the 100 miles on the Outer Banks so we could do a little R&R and sightsee but unless we get a room, we might have to bypass the island.
Otherwise, the rooms are booked and now I will go into details like turn by turn directions. Mapquest and Google maps are so good.
Training today was tough. Wind was steady at 17 mph from the north so going up the KB bridge the first time, we were already at 9 mph before we hit the first tenth of a mile. Of course, going the other way, it was 40.1.
Brought enough food and drink this morning to finish without any challenges and finished 53 miles.
