Day 8, 6/27, MM 177-248, 72 miles, 5472 vf.

I got up and packed early. This was to be a long day. There are constraints to travellig the BRP,

Food, water, lodging and/ or camping are rarely together. Sometimes this requires a long ride. I carried extra water and food-can you say HEAVIER LOAD? I found water about 60 miles into the ride. It was a long day, but I made it to a biker bar/motel for the night. One days rest was not enough. Much of the ride today wal along a corridor of huge rhodendron. Very pleasant.
