THIS IS WHAT I LOOK AT EVERYDAY-WHAT A GOOD LEADER

DAY 15 (4/30-SAT) PLYMOUTH, NC to SUFFOLK, VA 78.5 MILES I FELL TODAY

PLYMOUTH, NC to SUFFOLK, VA 78.5 MILES, 12.2 MPH, 6:25 BT, 7:00 to 3:30  Never above 60-cold-wind-don’t know how I’m going to do 90+ miles today. 1st stop-ch mk-watch old lady do scratch off-looks like rain. 2nd stop-ch mk-watch several people with scratch off. See sign-32 m to Suffolk on nice hwy w/wide shoulder-will cut 20 m off. After 5 m nice rd gone-don’t care-can’t do extra m. 3rd stop-Dollar General-ch mk & cookies-sit on chairs for sale outside. Use men’s room-someone took ladies home. 9 m to go-get back on map-country-less traffic. Stop again to look for motel-rt around corner. UT takes off-don’t know what happened-FELL OFF MY BIKE INTO RD😢😢😢 UT just looking back-not coming-get back on bike. Lady told him I fell-waiting to see if I could get up. How could you FALL so close to motel? No answer. Econolodge looks bad-don’t care. I’m traumatized & my feelimgs are hurt. Room is actually very large & clean $80. Eat Chinese. Bath-going to rest now. Called Fran to see if we can see her tomorrow-she lives in Va Beach.
