Day 60: Placerville, CA to Vacaville, CA

Total Distance: 97.8 mi
Moving Avg: 11.9 mph
Moving Time: 8:13

Well, I made a little miscalculation. I thought Winters would be 60
miles. Nope, it was 80. So I didn't get as far as I hoped today,
despite having gone further than I planned. I still think I'll make it
tomorrow, but it will be a longer day than I hoped. 

I spent most of today in various bike lanes and bike paths. Through
Sacramento was the American River bike path, which was really quite
pretty. Coming out of Sacramento was a bike path by the side of the
freeway. It was smelly and loud, but somehow it was cool. It was
clearly a utilitarian path, and I saw a bunch of people who were
obviously commute bikers. 

Davis was, as advertised, the bike capitol. I really wish I could have
spent more time there. I saw more bikes than cars, which was kinda
cool. In town it was mostly very casual bikers, but for a radius of
about 15 miles I kept running into more serious riders. Everywhere I
turned, there were bikes!

I'm really glad I didn't have the trailer. I'm sure I wouldn't make it
on Saturday with it. This is my last night on the road. It hasn't
really sunk in at all. Maybe it will tomorrow. Who knows.
