Riding solo & unsupported across the United States of America on a Bicycle! This Blog tells the tale of a long haired English bloke on a bike called Shinto cycling across America starting in Oregon and ending in Yorktown Virginia, solo, no support vehicle, just a man, a bike and a tent on the Adventure Cycling Association Trans America Bicycle Trail. Please forgive the endless typos, this blog was uploaded as I rode from my Cellphone.

Well I've done some basic math and I rode 4261.7 miles in 82 days which is an average of 52 miles a day I think. There was a day when due to rain my computer wasn't working so there is roughly another 50 miles to add but that's not important.
Right now I'm just realizing that I don't really properly comprehend yet just what o just did lol! I'm staring at the Atlantic ocean wishing I didn't have to cross it .
The kindness here continues as I am able to stay here at the grace church until my fligjt leaves on saturday. The church house overlooks the beach and river..hence its name Riverview. I'm doing some gardening work in exchange for this which I think is extremely fair as they didn't ask for it I just offered.
This is the best place to stay on the entire transam in my opinion and I am so pleased it is here at the end of my ride rather than the start.
If I can get a bicycle over the bridge to Gloucester point I will go.exprore over there tomorrow.
I'm incredibly tired for some reason. Perhaps the thought of the UK winter...hmmm....I'm told this place is similar in many ways to New England further north.....hmmm....
Maybe!
