We covered 93 miles today. The last 60 miles were grueling, accounting for a total elevation gain of 5,000 feet.
The highlight of the day came with about 20 miles left in the ride. Herm and I noticed a sign for Ice Cream and immediately turned in, Michelle and Tim followed.
We asked a gentleman coming out of the place whether the Ice Cream was good....he proceeded to tell us it was the best within a 100 mile radius. He was right. All the ice cream was home made and delicious.
Our treats carried us to the hotel with a quick stop to have a look at the finger lakes.
We arrived at the hotel around 3:30. We'd departed at 6:45 this morning so it was another long day in the saddle. Tomorrow is a 68 mile day, a welcome distance allowing us to sleep in an extra hour.
I can't believe we're in the final stretch.
Best,
Michael
