That's steep!

Well done, and with an injury, too!

Amber, I am so impressed with your fortitude and attitude--WOW-- such a grand and memorable adventure! Really sad to read about your foot injury, but it doesn't seem to have slowed you down. Enjoy the finale, you earned it!

Great job! Steady climbs are tough but I think the rolling climbs along the coast are harder! Fortunately, I have very low gears.

Congratulations!

So sorry about your injury, I’m glad you were able to ride!

Thanks, Rich!

Thanks, Genny. Yes, it was quite warm inland. And my foot appears to prefer my cycling shoe (less pain with more compression?), so I think I’ll do okay.

Thanks, Scott. The foot’s improving, so I decided to tackle the climb. I’ll write about it tonight if I have cell service.

I am just catching up on your journal and it is bringing back memories of our ride down this section on the coast. After riding in cool fog for days, going inland through the Avenue was a heat-shock, but we enjoyed the swimming hole at Standish Hickey before we were eaten by mosquitoes there.
I hope your foot heals quickly and doesn't bother you too much on the hill south of Leggett.

You're tough! Good job continuing on in the face of adversity! I hope it heals quickly.

I’m so sorry about your injury, Amber. Hopefully it heals well and quickly. And with the climb over Leggett Pass ahead of you! Maybe the sag wagon could drop you off at the summit so you can glide down to Westport.

Beautiful!

Cute - bet that felt luxurious!

Nice that you had a pal, Bernice, to join you on your exploration today. Do you have cycling shoes you walk in or take along an extra pair? As usual, looks like you made the most of your day!
