I stop in the Blueberry Cafe on my way out of town for breakfast. They opened at 7:00 AM so the timing was right. The breakfast special, pancakes with eggs and bacon was a real treat.
This was another push into 20 mph wind that continued all day.
I had planned to camp at Mary Jane Thurston State Park but the park was full. I took plan B and got a motel room in Napoleon twelve miles short of my goal. In kind words, this is maybe the worst motel I’ve slept in. Yuck! I didn’t use the shower and I covered the bed with the tarp I use to cover my bike. I slept in my own bedding.
I was up with the sun and left for Gibsonville for a short 50 mile day.
