Tuesday, July 15th: Hamburg, NY
A very welcome easy day, today, just 4 score flattish miles along (but not always in view of) the south shore of Lake Erie. Just the odd glide down a slope to a feeder stream, and then back up the other side, but nothing too taxing. You may know that Lake Erie, along with the other Great Lakes, is absolutely huge. Now here comes today's fascinating fact, courtesy of Fred: if Lake Erie were to be emptied, and then the River Amazon's outflow used to refill it, the process would take just TWO DAYS! Go on - amaze your friends with that one.
We entered our 11th state of the trip today, passing
DQ was superbly situated yet again, barely 4 miles from the motel, and many bikes were soon leaning against the walls.
I reverted to cherry today.
Mileage today : 84
Cumulative : 3506
