This waterfall:

Made a few stops for gas, one rider had a screw in a tire, luckily another brought a tire plug kit and inflator. Went for lunch nearby, stopped for dinner on the way home, and then since it was only a few minutes away we had to go snap a pic of the Rambo carving:

*Carving. It’s wood vs a sculpture. But yeah it’s pretty cool. This is the town/region where “Rambo: First Blood,” was filmed.

Yeah carving.

600km is good going as well.

Whats that about 400 miles? The whole of England is only about 600 miles.

600km is about 373 miles. We’ve ridden approx 700/day before.

There’s some local guy on a big highway bike riding across Canada and back in only a few weeks while his wife and kids are on a 3 week vacation somewhere else lol and he’s riding over 1,000kms/day. Probably some areas where that’s more easily doable than most of it being through the mountains here. Basically just gotta stay awake and alert riding in a straight line on flat ground across the whole middle of the country - plus I bet his bike is like sitting on a couch.

How cool. That's something I miss about bikes...the ability to just get up and go like that and all the things you see on the way. I imagine it was a helluva trip. Nice.

I'm glad you had a nice ride. The destination looks like it was great too. It's nice to see people enjoying what life has to offer. It makes me happier.
