We are at it again. We cycled 1200 miles down the coast of Oregon, into California, over the Golden Gate Bridge and into San Francisco. Then it was a ferry across the bay to Vallejo and a lovely side trip up the Napa Valley to Callestoga. That was the end of the bike portion of our trip.

Berlin Heights, Ohio

Day 1 was a beautiful way to start our bike trip. Sunny skies, light wind from the north and cool temperatures. We put in 54 miles and decided to call it a day. Found a nice campground just outside of Oberlin, Ohio and went to sleep by 9:00! The skies were clear and we watched fireflies light up the night from the skylight of our tent. Today is just about the same weather, so another lucky riding day. We just finished a yummy breakfast in Berlin Heights and will head down the road in search of another campsite for tonight. Not many options for camping around here so Dave is pouring over maps and we'll be asking some questions along the way. We had hoped to get to Luckey, Ohio tonight where we had a reservation at the Hoelter residence, but that seems to be about 70 miles from here. Too many miles to put in today, so we need to go to plan B. The Ohio countryside is beautiful and peaceful so it will be a good day for riding.
