Sunday night
Wow!!! What a beautiful day!!! The rain did not deter my leaving, just delayed it for an hour. Except for my front derailer having a problem (which has been my achilles heel for the past 3 months, the bike shop has tuned it up 3 times!!) which i eventually patched (hopefully fixed), the entire day went extremely smooth. Not one person yelled at me or tried to run me off the road. This has to be a World record!! Only had 3 encounters with dogs, one of which only wanted to race me and boy was he/she fast! Almost hit him with my front tire though, that would not have been good for either one of us ( I would have done an endover, another bike term.)
Total of 99.46 miles.
Bike store which is a block away is closed on sun and mon so i hope my patch went well.
Nags Head tomorrow.
Time for bed...Night all.

Hi Dr. Adam,
ReplyDeleteI am totally amazed that you want to do this .. no, I'm not asking if your car is broken.:)
Have you ever thought of throwing treats at these dogs ... on the other hand they might come for more ... ;)
Good luck for your ride, ivonne
