I thought i should finally post about our trip, and the typing is
improving my texting skills for sure. We are on the scenic San Juans, Orcas Island in particular. Todays ride was short- 13 hilly miles from the ferry to our hillside campground at Moran State Park. We were too tired after a 500ft climb to explore the surrounding lakes + mountains. We did make an important stop at a bike shop in Eastsound to fix nathans hub and swap out my cassette to get a few lower gears (which i loved on the hills). Probably the most interesting side effect of our trip has to do w food- since we burn 2-3k calories/day just biking, were constantly in search of calories. This has led to weird meals such as eating binges at mcdonalds, pbj-trailmix-cheddar sandwiches, and pb-tuna-cheddar-tabasco. Delicious, but a constant struggle to eat enough!
