Woke up at couldn’t sleep much, started getting ready for departure. It took me min. to make breakfast and pack everything, its not like I was making something special just pouring hot water into oatmeal, I need to work on that.
First hour and half it was great even big hills didn’t butter me, took a little detour to go along a small stream on a dirt road, but it didn’t last long it put me back on 97 in less than a mile.
By around i got to border of PA to a town called Narrowsburg, from there I crossed the border and continued to town called Beach Lake
Before I left home I planned to get to Beach Lake Ithaca
It turned out to be a grueling 5.5 miles of intense incline, on the last mile I came up with a brilliant idea that if push the bike I get a full body workout so that’s what I did :)
When I got to Beach lake I was pretty tired and hungry, it was little after so I went for lunch to a Dinner/gas station. That’s all there was Dinner/gas station and cigar shop and probably a lake with a beach witch I didn’t see. Got a burger, after 2 hr lunch and looking at the map I decided to turn back to NY and stay on Rte 97N, it’s nice being close to water. On the way back there wasn’t much peddling involved the only time I had to move them was on turns so I don’t scrape the asphalt :) For the rest of the day I kept climbing steep hills, the weather was not helping either. To cheer my self up i would stop for swimming every chance I got. 3x
At the end of the day I crossed over to PA again to find a campsite, nice girl at the desk gave 30% crosscountry discount and a can of soda I was smiling.
on the way to Beach Lake haha only if i knew
