Bright skies and more friends



Sunday Feb 13th Sanderson to Langtry

The weather has drastically changed for the better as our only worries today were if I covered up with enough sunscreen.  It felt so good to be hot...unfortunately Aaron doesn't agree as he doesn't do as well in the heat so we need to keep enough water on hand so he can dump it on his head to stay cool.

About mid ride we bumped into 3 more really nice cross country cyclists who were heading west a day behind Steve and Luke.  Daniel Young is an artist (painter) from Chicago who has been on the road since September (in picture with Aaron).  Coincidentally Daniel travelled with Big Ring Bob who I had planned to travel with until he had to cut his journey short.  The other two riders were Walter and Sarah both fellow New Yorkers (Catskills) who left from New York riding down the Atlantic coast to St.  Augustine then headed west.  They were all over 3000 miles into their journeys!  It was fun to hear their travel stories about the people and places they have seen down the road.
