More on IG story and I’m falling asleep talking to my phone in hopes it will type it out correctly. 

QUICK RECAP: the initial goal was to get all the way to LA but that was going to end up being a 270 mile ride so the plan was just to ride for 12 hours like I have every other day and just get as far as possible. I ended up connecting with a bunch of different people all at different times so it was pretty much never alone. we had amazing guides that took us through their hometown in a faster way than the route. Plus a tailwind the entire way and only two tiny stops, one to charge my phone and get a quarter espresso and the second was an In-N-Out for some water made for an extremely fast day. 

ROUTE: cayucos is cool, but this route really takes you away from all of the good riding. The middle part was pretty much just freeway and nothing special but the raging tailwind had me smiling from ear to ear. Once we finally got back to the coast and onto the PCH at sunset now that was magical.

Having so many great people around me, made me want to push harder so we ended up averaging the fastest speed that I’ve done all trip. Even though it would’ve been nicer to get a little bit further to make tomorrow, not so big I can say with certainty that this was the best this day could’ve been .

MENTAL: man, I started this day really really low. Not that I expected it, and I really tried to not let this thought seep into my brain, but I kind of secretly hoped that my wife and kids were going to be waiting for me at the hotel in Cayucos.

I tried to not let my hopes get up for that knowing that just logistically that wasn’t gonna be feasible, but yesterday was super lonely was very little people around me, and I just kind of started to fall apart so when I got to the hotel last night and it was just dark and cold And sad it rolled over into today and the first 20 miles I was kinda going downhill mentally.

But this trip seems almost fake or staged in someway. Like everything that I need comes to me or happens exactly when I need it. It’s actually super strange when I think about it how many things could’ve went wrong or in a different direction or not happened, but everything that has happened seems to almost be Scripted because it’s perfect. So today I connected with this guy who showed me out of slow. He was a great guy and had some information about the town. I never knew about. That’s when I connected with Dave who was an absolute legend and help me navigate some really fast sense towards Santa Barbara. Then Roman connected with us and took us through the fastest way possible through Santa Barbara, but also added in the little butterfly Drive, which was amazing. He was a great guide and a strong writer. Roman dumped us off with Victor who did just like every other guide I’ve had on this trip Took us on a more direct and local knowledge route to get us through the town fast.

I also had this guy Kevin, who had his family drop him off 130 miles from LA and then he rode about half of my ride back with me. Kevin helped me film for YouTube and just had a great energy about him.

Combine all of that with a few more riders that sprinkled in and then the people on the side of the road with signs and cheering, all of these people gave me unlimited energy in my legs. I never had that 5 o’clock slump, I never doubted for one second , how the day was going to go, I was just so motivated and so inspired to push hard all day

So like I said, when I needed a fast day and a day of emotional support, I got the fastest day of the trip with the most emotional support of the trip. And now with only one day left, granite it is a very big day, there’s nothing that could stop me now.
