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 36 - rest day in Santa Barbara pt 1

I really needed a rest today. You could maybe tell from my last couple of posts i was starting to lose the plot. Me? A burger? With my reputation? ;)

Santa Barbara is quite a nice spot and the bars were lively last night. But I was not capable of going large so an early night was taken.

It is monster, roasting hot today. Too hot for a poor wee scots laddie. I had to buy beach shorts and a sun hat. Beach shorts to stay cool (unsuccesfully) and a hat to save sunburn on my folically challenged scalp.

Back to the script Jimbo. I am now entering the endgame of this tour/challenge. To help me get over the finish line - in terms of moral support and fund raising - my work colleagues are holding a bake sale and tombola event on Thursday. Brilliant! Many thanks to everyone involved and a special thanks to Douglas Hill. Id never have known about Room To Read if not for his marathon running acievements and hes been helping keep everyone at work uptodate on my progress on this trip...tbc
