GOOD MORNING OREGON!!

DAY 43

MONDAY 16 MAY 2016

CRESCENT CITY - HARRIS BEACH STATE PARK 

1110 - 1545

45.11 km (28.03 miles)
Av. Speed: 14.7 km/h (9.1 mph)
Max. Speed: 36.6 km/h (22.7 mph)
Time On Bike: 3h 03m 39s

I have crossed into Oregon and will be riding up this coastline now for the next 10 days or so.

Today was the first genuine headwind so far - it was strong and gusting enough to hold me up pretty consistently all morning even though it was a very low impact ride through to Brookings.

I've pitched in overnight at Harris Beach State Park which is just a mile north of  the downtown here and so long as conditions remain as clear as they are today, I can cope with the breeze riding the recumbent.

It's a super place to camp too - really sheltered and great facilities for only $5. It looks more like the botanical gardens than a campground.

Hopefully this sets the standard for the rest of Oregon??.......
