I had not taken a day off from riding since starting this adventure mid June and my mind and body were ready for a break. Between the heat and the general exhaustion, this trip was starting to take its toll. Leane picked me up in Mohawk and she and Tom welcomed me into their home. Vanessa then made the long long 5 hour drive from home by herself.

Home cooked meals, blueberry picking, and just hanging out with family and my incredible wife were all reminders of what I had been taking for granted back home.

Home, it’s only 287 bicycle miles away now.
