I've taken a 6 month career break to help me decide what I want to do when I grow up! This BLOG will record my adventures and chart my progress as I cycle the western pacific coast of the US for Room to Read. Find out what I've been up to and how I'm getting on...

Day 10 report - Garibaldi to Lincoln City pt1

Total miles 68.7
Average speed 13.1mph
Total ascent 1083m

(Sorry, no pc so blind blogging again- this means i cant see commentsso apologies if youve asked a q and im not replying yet)

What of today, then? Some of the best cycling so far, punctuated by an uncharacteristcally deflating lunch!

Ive been setting an alarm for 6:30 and today was no different. except today at 6:30 i set it back to 7...and at 7 i was trying to convince myself a rest day was a good idea. In such dire situations the one thing that is guaranteed to get me moving is switching on the tv. Its good to get the weather and a bit of news...or thats the plan. Now, im not a fan of telly back home either and apologies if i offend; but Bruce Sprinsteen once did a song called "57 channels and nothing on". The Boss called it, and it seems like theres more ads than anything else. This is enough to fire me up into action...

Country music with breafast again and the first hour on the bike was a dream...tbc...
