Progress so far:
End of week three already - what a time we are having! Every day we cannot wait to get out on the road to see what sights we will see. We have had some incredible, once in a lifetime rides (although we both have our favorites we would love to ride again some day). As the map above shows we are gradually creeping West and are now just a few days from the Pacific coast - what a milestone that will be.
We feel we have been very fortunate with the weather, just having a few rough days but thankfully not on days when we had to travel 100's of miles. Right now we are in a spell of incredible weather and we are enjoying every moment. The bikes have been amazing - not a moments hesitation and are just brilliant touring machines. We have settled into an easy routine of setting off early, stopping for coffee (or breakfast) midmorning, picnic lunch at a scenic pull off, check in to our accommodation about 4:00pm, head out for an early dinner about 7:00pm and then early to bed about 9:30PM! Works well for us.
