Why does Ohio look so flat on a map? Trust me going south on 93 is anything but flat. It is a succession of short steep hills that really zap the energy from your legs. To day the ride was quite uneventful except for a little short cut I took that seemed great on the GPS, but turned out to be 3 miles of gravel. Not fun …..
Main goal is riding steady and eating a bite and taking a sip every 5 minutes. My favorite bike riding food are jam sandwiches. Two slices of bread and a tablespoon of jam in the middle. Slice it into 12 morsels and you have a bite every 5 minutes for an hour. Stopped in Zanesville for, water, Gatorade and 4 bagels.
Stayed at a cheap motel close to a Super Wall Mart where I bought food for the evening (chicken and precooked rice) and the next day ride (bread and Jam)
