Put one pedal in front of the other, and think of how proudly future you will look back on this.

Currently in SLO for a rest day today and got a motel next to the highway. Trying to stretch and get the excitement to bike halfway between cuyama and Santa Maria tomorrow and just do a 50 mile ride instead of pushing to like 70 or 80. Here's what I've done so far.

Dude, those are some epic days! Proud of ya. Good call to take a minute to rest both the mind and body and regroup.

Thank you! I'm testing my limits to the max this trip both mentally and physically. I feel more in tune with my body than ever before, even consistently stretching and watching what I eat on this rest day.
