Things that go bump in the night

Well there was something big out there last night, though I reckon it was just a deer. Didn't dare look though. Still, managed to get as solid a 12 hrs sleep as you can when camping.

Currently sitting in the Hungry Bear cafe ( which has wifi) so thought I'd do a quick post 15 miles into stage 3. I'm just trying to force down an enormous plate of chips on top of a large plate of french toast.

Knee was hurting like heck for the first few miles but has improved massively in the past 10 miles. Clouded over today but still dry at the moment. Hoping to make it to Kalaloch before the rain that's forecast starts.

  1. Good to know that the knee is ok and your enjoying the first proper American meal.

    At least they let you in...Mr Smelly well Im sure you must be getting that way. How many more days before a proper shower? Well by the sounds of things the predicted rain might help !

    Take care Fra.

  2. Greetings from Joan and John in Balerno!
    Good to hear that you are making good progress and that the weather has been kind to you. Sorry to learn that your knee is playing you up - just remember to listen to your body Fraser.

    We have been following your diary but have only just worked out (thanks to Graham) how to contact you.

    To-day I sent your blog address to Donna and Mark in Australia so no doubt they will soon be in touch with you.

    Meanwhile safe cycling Fraser and keep taking those excellent photographs.

  4. Chips? Fries, Fraser, fries!

    Am up in Scotland for Easter, and have road bike and MTB with me. And it's raining.

    Keep pedalling
