I know my limits and after a week my mindset starts to get a bit shaky. Burn out is as dangerous any physical injury.
I have been camping in Bowling Green, Ohio in the back yard of a fellow bike enthusiast. My tent is next to a Japanese style pond loaded with goldfish of varying sizes. Apparently they multiple like rabbits or about ten times faster. A local great blue heron had a feast a while back.
I had the bike checked over and a few things adjusted. Having found a local CVS store, I was able to replenish my heart Meds. I am healthier than ever but I do what my cardiologist tells me to do. Try my hand at sewing, I stitched up a tear in my pannier. Other tasks included buying more sunscreen lotion and abright orange hankerchief to cover my head. I don't need my skin doctor carving me up.. The bike got a rest and I walked around town; how boring is that?! Tomorrow, I will try for Huron, Ohio about 68 miles away. The town borders Lake Erie. When I get to Erie, Pa., I head south to Pittsburgh. One mile at a time with the wind hopefully at my back.
