The following is a transcription of a phone post that originally appeared in my main journal, here.

Well that was hard, even though that was only 17 miles from Lakeville to Wareham. That was a real hard leg. When I get to Wareham usually, almost invariably, I'm absolutely beat, dead tired, and having all sorts of neck pain and stuff like that, and this ride is no exception. And it's pretty hot, but I seem to be maintaining my body temperature okay, drinking a lot and throwing a lot of water over my head. We are at 104 miles, which is more than a century as they say, but still going strong (or at least still going -- we'll work on strong). But at the next stop we'll be all done and there's only about 10 miles left until that stop, so hopefully this last one, even though it will be hard, will be short. And I'm sure you can hear the cow bells and stuff in the background. The water stops are always kind of a chaotic party but I'm off to fill my water bottles and hopefully do that last leg. And the next then the next time you hear from me should be from the end of day one in Bourne. Ok? Talk to you later.
