50 miles - all in a Dodge Truck; who knows how much climbing; road kill (1 bear, 1 skunk, 1 deer on top of car)
It was with heavy hearts that we shuttled what would have been one of the highlights of the trip. Major karma and kudos to David, one of the owners of DeHaven Valley Inn (where we are staying tonight), for picking us up and transporting us and our bikes.
The road from Garberville to Westport is beautiful, hilly and with not much traffic - especially after leaving Leggett. So, we were sorry we weren't getting the opportunity to bike it. But it was a good decision as Arn's wheel is too wobbly to risk on such a remote stretch of road. Tomorrow, we hope it holds the 30 miles to Mendocino - where the bike shop is open on Sunday.
We aren't sure where we go from there. We are debating whether to cut inland on 128 - Cloverdale - Calistoga - Wine Country or stay on the coast. If the weather is sunny, we'll be on the coast. If it stays foggy, we are going inland to find some sun for a few days before reaching San Francisco.
