Mileage: 96, at least 40% dirt

Totals to date: 62 towns, 394 miles

Another OMG day: 96 miles, 15 towns with some real adventure. About 40 percent dirt, or maybe more with all my winding at the end. Well over the one-fifth mark for towns. No idea on mileage. One nasty dog, some crosswind, one bear crossing the road just in front of me, one mink almost ran under my tire, lots of bad directional advice both from people, GPS, and my paper maps, a few hours of something wrong with the bike until I figured it out and fixed it, two miles of fish-tailing down a sandy road in the dark of night, two pretty dead batteries, two pickup trucks (not included in the 96 miles I rode) and some wonderful trail angels along with views that made it all worthwhile. A few power bars and bed as I’m not cooking tonight. Considering the length of the ride I feel pretty good.
