Day 56

66 miles.  Kirkwood to Placerville.  Last night was the coldest of the trip.  I had my fleece hat on while I slept.  Plenty of rolling hills on the way down to Placerville.  I had my third flat tire of the trip.  Traffic is starting to increase as I move out of the mountains.  The second half of the ride tomorrow will be on a bike trail.  I ate a world class burito supreme at a small Mexican restaurant.  It was as big as one my shoes.   Tonight I'm in a nice little mom and pop motel.

    TURN AROUND, TOM! You have nothing to prove.
