72 miles Wilbur to Spokane. First day to average over 10 mph.
After a short day yesterday and a good night's rest I was off at about 6:30. No significant hills Just rolling flatish lands. About 10 miles from Spokane Mo intercepted me and led me home. Again the friends part of Biking To Friends was very rewarding as all the Copes were in residence. Chris had been pondering the question of where I would go from here and we spent some time with his maps. Since he has biked most of the rural roads around here he was able to show me what looks like a great route as far as Kellogg ID. Mo retired at her usual time (9:30) and I tried to watch a movie with Chris, but couldn't stay awake.
I've heard that Phillip Roth is a very disciplined writer who goes to his office at a regular hour, takes a lunch break at midday and then returns to finish his day's work. In so doing he is said to produce about one page of writing. It is about the same for me. I get up and start to ride. One day of work generates about one page or less of this account. Such are the thoughts of a guy riding his bike across the land.
I think I posted the same picture two times. This was a mistake. No need to try to find something significant in the second copy.
