Description: Very early wakeup….5:15am. We have 125-miles to ride today and it will take up to 12-hours. It will be mostly flat, but we’re hoping for a tailwind. We need it. As it turned out, the day was very cold at first, but the skies opened up and the sun popped through to heat up the afternoon. It was glorious and we welcomed the warm temps.

Over overnight stay was at Unity of Eugene. They prepared a huge meal for us and their congregation. Wow! Afterwards, we offered some songs and stories about our trip to the local community.

We’re ready for more ongoing sunshine.

Climate: Cloudy & cold early. Partly sunny in pm. Low 60s.
