Day 42--Does a Bear Dills Crap in the Woods?
I don't crap in the woods often, but when I do, I prefer the woods of northern Florida.
It was an emergency--it happened--enough on that subject.
Today was a productive day. Made it 110 miles although about half a mile of that was from me going on a "shortcut" and having to double back.
On the map it looked like I could shave a few miles by taking a certain road. It ran out of pavement though. I looked at the dirt and thought I could still ride it. I could! For a few feet. It then turned to beach sand and I almost crashed. So I had to turn around back to the main route.
There was not much wind today until I had to turn north for about 10 miles and got hammered the whole way. The road was in pretty good shape to awesome shape all day too. Just a nice day of riding.
It looks like I have about 230 miles or so left to go. I plan to try to do close to 100 for two more days and whatever is left on the 3rd day. This is if everything goes right though. From past experiences, I know that things often don't go according to plan on the road.

Bet you wish you'd found another one of those Cajun rest stop commodes today!
