Canada to Mexico, Day 16:
We rode 32 miles to Eureka (749 miles total). The bad news is that we had to
cut our ride short today, as Pat was feeling under the weather. I blame it on
the dang hills we've had, which takes everything out of us. I also blame it on
the lack of sun. We haven't really seen the sun since our first few days in
Oregon, so it's been about 5 days. Lack of sun=lack of energy and Pat is
lacking both. The good news is that hopefully, a short ride today and some rest
is just what he needs for him to get back on the bike tomorrow. Summary of the
day: broken spokes, people who honk and startle us just to be jerks, no sun,
and feeling under the weather are bad; an elk family sighting, rest, flushing toilets,
and wine are good!
