Boom, Day 3 done… 70 miles

I thought maybe this last day would be hard, but it’s amazing what a bullet coffee in the morning and two Advils can do.  Plus a day where you have plenty of time helps.

I finished at the train station in downtown San Diego, but the official Pacific Coast ride still goes another 20 miles down the coast to the border-that I’ll save for another time.  I didn’t want to add another 40 miles to the day.

nice overcast day for most of the ride

I learned a lot from this trip to help with planning a longer trip in the future and in researching for some more info.  Granted, I was carry very little on  this trip, but I have a better understanding of what type of bike I should be looking for and realistic mileage days to expect without killing yourself.
