Made some great progress today, did about 78 miles at 4:45 pm, and aiming to do 30 more miles until the sun goes down. Aiming to camp out at El Capitan State Beach, but we’ll see how long the daylight will last. At the end of highway 1 right now, and the boys are going to have to ride a bit of the 101. Chris has a swollen knee and possible pulled tendon, so he’s seeing if he can finish this ride. Mark also has a bit of a pulled tendon, but it seems to be ok. Other than that, everyone is doing good, just super tired and looking for that inner strength to get up this last 1,000 ft climb. More later!

I’m uploading some of the highlights from the past 2 days, just to get a bigger image size for you guys…

I know the slideshow is a bit small, if you click on it, it will take you to all of the photos so you can see them larger.

I will blog more photos later today. We camped at Morro Bay last night, and it was really beautiful. Everything on this trip has been amazing so far, my jaw has been dropping at the scenery. Today we got an earlier start than the past two days, and are trying to make it somewhere past Santa Barbara if possible. Everyone is feeling tired and sore. Brandon had a knee problem and is now helping me and Austin with our team management. The camping has been ok so far, it is nice when the campsites have hot water for showers! so essential! We would like to stay in a small hotel tonight…. we’ll see what happens. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches have been the staple of this trip so far… I’ve even been making a triple decker with trail mix inside, you’ll see the photos soon! Thats it for now! More later!

So it was really hard getting any reception today!!!
Sorry if I can’t blog for a few days, I will try to blog as soon as possible!! Here is day 2!
