Day 66: To Hope, Az
Wednesday April 7, 2010, 62 miles (100 km) - Total so far: 3,041 miles (4,894 km)
We started off the day by heading across the street to a small cafe. We ate and had coffee and talked for awhile, and before we knew it, it was 9 o'clock. We got on our bikes and hit the road. It was very nice riding for most of the day. Great weather, great shoulder, and great wind for a change. At times we actually had a bit of a tailwind! Nothing crazy, but anything is better than headwinds. We saw lots of eastbounders today, and the last guy we saw was complaining about the headwinds. Anyway, we made it to Hope, AZ relatively quick. We're at an RV park now, all showered and relaxing. I forgot to mention that leaving Phoenix we started our final map of the Southern Tier! We have less than 300 miles now til we reach San Diego. We'll be in California tomorrow!
