55.5 MILES 12.6 MPH 4 HRS 23 MIN BIKING TIME (6:15-11:30)
Breakfast at 6:00-then on 17. Same as yesterday for 40 m-cool, trees, not much traffic-listen to music. Slow 12 mph-more head wind today-still enjoyable. Pass through historic towns & sites-don’t have time to stop. Stop at PO & mail back clothes for rain & cold weather. Now very hot-10:30, no shade, lots of traffic, bumper strips again. Really have to concentrate not to go over bumps. Stop at McDonalds in Richmond Hill. OR still not feeling well-have another 15 m to Savanna. Says he’s finished-IT’S OVER! When you don’t feel well-it’s not fun. MAINE IS A LONG WAY. Rest of the story later.
