Summary of day 9

on Thur with temps unusually warm and cooler temps coming late in the day the coastal fog was already rolling at night and it was bad most of the day Fri....in fact the only time there wasn't any fog was coming into Santa Cruz...there it was sunny and warm, which during previous year is the opposite of the norm....so I had to peel off my jacket and knee warmers....however a few miles before Moss Landing I had to put it all back on once again....
I had a bit of a roller coaster start to the day....mentally what started as a day of percieved excitement and encouragement quickly turned into dismay and disappointment....however after 8 days now of solo riding and a well established routine of handling the day I recovered fairly fast...physically I'm tired and despite that have some periods where I feel pretty good....today I had a real rough spot between miles 100 - 125....the sun turned to fog and I got chilled and had a hard time getting warm again....
no pictures today....with the fog there were very few opportunities and little time for it....144miles for the day....next up Big Sur
