48 States: Day 29, Home!

A super nice day to coast the 280 miles home, the Kern river is always nice and then across the boring central valley & home. The weather is nicer at home than within 10,500 miles. It was a pleasant 60 degree and no wind.

Amusingly I’ve done three 4 week trips, and each one had its own weather theme:

Alaska – rained for 3 of 4 weeks

Moto-bicycle trip – 90 to 100F every day

48 state trip: wind wind wind

I’m not sure what will happen next time, hopefully no biblical plagues.

I’ll draw up a route map and do a summary post of this trip later.

What’s next? Well, hopefully back to the bicycle. I still have 70 of the top 100 US climbs to do on a bicycle. And a bunch of those are in California, so I may try to focus on that next.
