Saturday 24th July 1999 -> Albany NY

The morning dawned heavily overcast and damp underfoot. Breakfast at 6-30am was a standard in house buffet.

I didn’t leave until about 7-20am as Tod found he had a puncture in his back tyre – it turned out to be a little wire, barely noticeable.

The road was initially wet but the clouds lifted and the sun partially came out. There was virtually no wind. As we rode on virtually flat roads with a few small hills among houses and trees etc, the road dried out.

Arriving at about 11-25am, the hotel room was actually ready and all the luggage unloaded! The hotel room is also the largest and newest yet – complete with a business desk, chair, pencil, stapler etc.

The total ride for the day was 70.8 miles in 3hrs 51m with a maximum of 31.1mph.

Dinner was a complete buffet at “Olde Country” which we vanned to and from – it was about 1.5 miles from the hotel! Great food and drinks!
