my dorky sleep system for the win. i did wake up at 2:30 a.m. to some construction noise. but i just restarted my phone's Rain Forest white noise, put the single ear muff back over my left ear with the earbud, and fell back asleep until 5:45a.m.
i biked to lowes this morning leaving stuff in my tent, and it was all there when i got back. i took all the pricey stuff with me, so people would only get my street clothes, tent, sleeping quilt and sleeping pad. pricey stuff i know, but less likely anyone wants it.
i got a new power brick. it holds 20amp hours. my phone's battery is 3 ah, and gps is 1.8. so i can fully recharge 4 times. my phone and GPS typically only drain down to 1/3rd of their capacity. so the new battery should get me through a handful of days.
no breakfast other and cliff bars, gatorade and a snickers. i don't want to pedal after a heavy breakfast. maybe Syracuse when I'm at a hotel.
did my laundry last night too, so i'm wearing clean cycling clothes.
charging stuff up and drying things out. looks like a yard sale or as jacqui quipped via text. It looks the same at home (i do lay my stuff out everywhere often, she's most patient with my messiness.)
while at lowes i did buy a 25ft hose, they really nice kind that is super flexible. they don't break if they freeze.
time to pack everything back up, strap it to the bike and get moving to Rochester
