• Yesterday, I pushed my bike over a sand dune to do the requisite ‘wheel dip’ in the Pacific Ocean
• Had a lovely ride out of Florence with a pretty nice tail wind most of the day
• The campground we were aiming for was closed, but we ended up finding a decent spot tucked in behind the volunteer fire department at triangle lake.
• This morning, we hit up the father’s day pancake breakfast at the local Grange – 5 stars, would eat again
• Pretty gentle ride to Eugene to meet up with Michael
• Decided to stay in Eugene whilst Nick reconsidered his relationship with his knee

Another journey begins! Nick and I made the drive from Oakland to Florence without incident. It turns out that the wages of 10 weeks on a bicycle is 9 hours on I-5 in an oversized SUV.
I’m now on a bus heading back to Florence after dropping off our car in Eugene. Almost finished with the logistical acrobatics so that we can finally start riding bikes!
