A cold morning with heavy dew that didn’t warm and dry up until 10 AM. I made the best of it enjoying breakfast followed by peach pie and coffee.
There aren’t many choices to stay between here and Geneva of the Lake. I couldn’t find a way to split the distance into two days. So I worked out some options for a three day ride instead.
I rode the North Coast Inland Trail from Fremont to Clyde. On this trail I met an interesting man, I’m guessing in his 50’s, that has never owned a car or has a drivers license. He goes everywhere by bicycle or kick scooter, we talked for a while about the tour and his life. He offered a better way for me to get to Avery by continuing on the trail to the end before turning north to once again pick up my route.
I stopped in Avery for the night to split the distance into thirds. I checked into the Quality Inn. I think I’ll sleep well and tomorrow ride to Lakewood, a city on Lake Erie, to stay with a WarmShowers host.
