Breakfast was again a solid buffet with servers of eggs, French toast etc.
I left the hotel about 7am and cycled straight into another stiff headwind. With a couple of gentle climbs and a couple of stiffer climbs, it took about 2hrs to reach sag at 30 miles. A great average! Scenery was just more nothingness.
After the sag, the wind died down, some downhills were found and the scenery became rural farming and small urban, complete with some small airfields, featuring a microlight and glider and bi-plane rides.
The road was generally good and I arrived at the hotel about 11-20am and had to wait two hours for my luggage!
Cycling for the day was 68.3 miles in 4hrs 13m with a max of 31.1mph. This is not bad considering I was pedalling down a hill into the wind at 12-13mph!
I wandered downtown to the bike shop, post office and library. E-mail access was full of school kids so no go!
Dinner was a superb full range buffet at a place down the road – the best and most complete to date.
