Day 1 - 298 Miles
We picked an amazingly hot day to set out. W. is still a bit sore from the Chester ride... and the heat isn't helping either of us. We also go stuck at a road construction site and sat in the sun on the asphalt for 20 minutes.
When we were finally allowed to proceed, the flagger was about to stop us again, no doubt for another 20 minutes but I thumped my chest "asking" to be let through and he waved us through, but stepped in front of the guy behind us. Watching in my mirrors, I could tell though his windshield he was ticked off... but I was just glad to have some wind crossing over us again.
We had to stop to rehydrate and cool off numerous times, including a stop at Harry & David's in Medford... but by the time we hit Grants Pass we were both shot and no desire to continue on to our original half-way point of Roseburg.
The Motel 6 we chose had a pool. Delightful.
Total Miles: 512
