Coffee Shop Update

Today
 - I found coffee. First we had to ride to ride for one hour. It was some sort of decaffeinated fucked up dream. Never again.

Breakfast This Morning. 
6 Day Old Bagels 
Hot Sauce
Omelette 
Assorted Donuts
Large Coffee


Real Day #1
Chatham NH - Piermont NH 
125k 
Too much climbing. 
5:40:00
 - First day was a real day. 5,000 ft of climbing doesn't sound like a lot. With a metric shit ton of gear and a heavy bike it's was awful. We made it eventually.

Another Climb. Another Hour of Brett's Ass In My Face

There's A Giant Rocket In Warren NH. Brett Gave It A Hug

Day 2 
 - Late start. Waited out some rain and started at 11:00a.m. This proved to be a problem later in the day. Really, the whole day was a pain in the ass. Headwinds, steep climbs, pain in the ass dirt roads, couldn't find the campsite, it was dark when we found it. Type 2 fun. 
 - Went over Middlebury Gap. A climb I did in the third stage of Green Mountain Stage Race. This time I went slower. 
 - Peirmont NH - Middlebury VT
 - 153K
 - 7:00:00
 - 1750m of climbing. 
Vermont Voted #1 in Quaintness by Brett Peters.
