Day 6
This entry was posted on 4/10/2007 11:34 PM and is filed under Florida Day 1-11.
Canal Point to Yeehaw Junction
65 miles
To date, today was the toughest day. The ride started off with Glenn getting his third flat.
It rained more than half of the day and did it did pour! We trekked nearly 35 miles at
8 mph into the wind while getting soaked. At the endof the road was Yeehaw Junction.
If you drive towards Orlando, you've probably seen signs for this junction everywhere.
It's a little hole in the wall but very cozy. The owner also put us up in their hotel for free.
The place is called the Desert Inn and apparently it is a historical landmark. Its also has an
interesting past. You can probably look it up online.
Oh, I can't forget about J&S Fish Camp run by Kim. Josh waited for us with free beer at
about lunch time. Kim determined we had a very tough day so what better to hydrate you
then beer. This bar located along Lake Okeechobee, is very popular with motor cyclists. We
should have been there the night before, apparently it gets pretty crazy.
We are making pretty good time. It looks like we could be in Gainesvilee by Friday or Saturday.
6 days of continuous riding is definitely taking its toll. We plan to take a rest day in Gainesville
so that should help our bodies as well as our minds.
Good night
Jin, Glenn, Josh
1 mile at a time...
