The route on Day 4 had a little bit of everything. A delicious treat for the eyes with stunning vistas and ocean views that gave way to sprawling fields of farmland and even some quaint seaside towns. The route was sometimes remote and and some were congested town streets. Before lunch, we conquered the infamous Evil Twins. The views from the top of that second sister hill were pectacular. The top of the second sister was where we crowded around for our half way to L.A. pictures.
I was fine when I finally got to the top of the second sister hill until somebody asked me how I was. Yes, another breakdown with tears streaming down my face, but I finally composed myself as you can see from the picture.
From there, we rode back out to the coast and through the city of Pismo Beach and on into camp. Highlight of the day: Half Way to LA!! At the top of the second sister hill, we came upon a vista point turnout where we had the opportunity to have our pictures taken with the Half Way to LA sign! Also, the fun rest stops - I'll let you figure out the themes. By the way, the last three days, I've been eating only bananas and oranges at the rest stops. Today, junk food ruled 😄.
I met Jeanne Reed a 16-year veteran of AIDS Ride - AIDS/LifeCycle.
Dinner piled ver high.
Another great picture of our tents, all packed into one area. And, a makeshift charging station.
