Day 1




Distance: 63 miles
Final Destination: Rockport, ME
It was terrible leaving my family this morning. Lump in throat and all we road away.
Day was pretty uneventful with the exception of Adrian losing a couple of bolts on his rear bike rack and breaking two spokes on his rear wheel (see picture, ugh!)
Beautiful day for biking (mid-60's) partly sunny.
Met two women on recumbent bikes who were just finishing up a trans-american 2.5 month bike trip. Made my 5-weeker seem more doable (Thanks for the encouragement Lord!)
Seems Adrian's family lives close to where we were going to camp, so...
A nice warm bed tonight!
Til tomorrow
