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 21 Report - Westport to Fort Bragg pt1

Total Miles 17.3
Average speed 12.1mph
Total ascent 343m

I needed a rest day but with no restaurant and no comms Westport, pretty as it is, was not the place to stop. Hence the wee recovery ride into Port Bragg with full array of services.

Ive purchased a new set of gloves and will adjust my saddle a little to take more strain off my hands and elbows. I dont know if the saddle thing will help but sometimes a change is good to change the frozen cyclist position a little!

Stat update...in all the comms panic we've missed...

- passed the halfway point 2 days ago!
- passed 1000 miles yesterday!

Finally a couple of extra bits from t he last 2 days that the 1 hour rule at Ft Bragg library prevented me posting (im not complaining its a busy library and im very happy to use it!)

After the lost coast i really was racing against sunset. I dont want to cycle in the dark here so i was engaging maximum warp to get to Myers flat. The observant amongst you will know that wasnt my endpoint...tbc
