Day 13 Gold Beach to Crescent City 55 miles(665 total)


Canada to Mexico, Day 13: 

We rode 55 miles to Crescent City (665 miles total). The bad news is that we left Oregon and Pat didn't get a beer biking shirt. He loves microbrews and some of his favorite beers are from Oregon (Rogue and Deschutes). He couldn't wait to get to Oregon so he could finally get a cool beer biking shirt. We looked at the Rogue Brewery, several bike shops, and other places, but couldn't find anything. So he left Oregon with no shirt :(. The good news is that leaving Oregon means we don't have to see all the Oregon Ducks stuff anymore (sorry Tara, Kevin, and Sue). Even better than that, leaving Oregon means we made it to California! (don't worry about us being too hot though- it is 55 degrees and cold!). Summary of the day: fog, flat tires (Riley- twice), headwinds, cold weather, Oregon Ducks (sorry again), and no cool beer biking shirt are bad; fluorescent jackets, flashers on Pat's helmet and trailer, California, and wine are good!
