Day 6: 2/29/24: Ceres to Max Meadows, VA

Happy "leap year day" or whatever it's called.

I had a tremendous nights sleep last night.  Slept soundly from about 9 p.m. to 6:30 this morning.  I woke up feeling totally refreshed.  Since I rode farther yesterday than originally planned, I would have less miles to ride today.

Knowing this was going to be a light, low mileage day, I did not leave the Hostel until about 9:15 a.m.  This allowed the temperature to rise a little before I headed out.

The ride today had some beautiful mountain views (pics below).

The weather was much better than yesterday.  It was pleasantly cool with a sunny sky.  

Tonight I am staying with a Warmshowers host, Tony, in Max Meadows, VA.  Tony saw I still use an "old school" cycling computer on my bicycle so he gave me a couple of them he no longer used because he upgraded to a Garmin with GPS technology.  The ones he gave me are an upgrade from mine because they are wireless whereas mine is wired.  It's like Christmas in February:)

Total miles today:  38.2
