Day 4

California! Crossed the border not 15 minutes before sunset. Hard riding all day with strong head winds and cross winds. It can really toss you around in your lane sometimes. Kinda feels like riding with a big fat guy leaning against you all day, and then sometimes he will slip and knock against you harder when a gust comes. I was expecting it to be hot today, but it really wasn't. I actually had to layer up across arizona. Finally seeing plenty of other bikes today, saw very few until today. Now is a good time to travel in the US btw, the entire country is like 5% off for canadians.

Also note, I wasn't in new york today. Either there was a glitch in my code, or with google latitude. I'll try to remove that data point from my database when I get a chance.

Bacon sunday anyone?
