147 miles!!!!! That crazy Dougall cycled 147 miles yesterday!!! He made it to Corcoran, which is along highway 43. When he got there, he was knackered, thus desperate for a hotel. He noticed that the centre of the town was cordoned off and there was a big hot rod show. He slowly cycled along the pavement to get around all the cars and went to the hotel, thinking there was no chance of a room because it was so busy. Luckily, the budget hotel still had a room so he was mightily relieved. The only room left was a suite, so he got a suite, but it's a budget suite, so only $70.
In other news, he only just noticed that he's got a very weird tan because of the straps of his helmet. He has funny white stripes down the side of his face - only noticable from the side, so he didn't notice before. That's going to go really well with the cycle shorts and shirt tan! ha!
