We made it! We cycled all the way from St Augustine, Florida to San Diego, California.
Once we'd finished (in the dark) we spent a night at the Youth Hostel in Ocean Beach. The following day, after some admin, we stayed with Maurice and Roni a couple who we'd been put in touch with by a fellow camper (Al) when we were in mid-Texas:
After a restorative evening swapping tales of the road, we hired a car and headed up the West Coast. We had planned to go all over the place, but in the end opted to get to San Francisco and stay put.
This was an amazing ride, through an amazing country. Along the way we've been blown away by the scenery and by the generosity and friendliness of the people we've met on the way. Riding a heavily loaded touring bike is a great ice-breaker with people always interested in what it is we're doing.
