Day 2 - tie my shoe

Day 2 we rode from Bellingham to Port Adlock.  Well, really it was from south of Bellingham to a small town called Chimacum.  See pics of the fun we had with the cows on FB.  

The problem is I didn’t write this on the night after the ride so I am already forgetting all that happened.  We had an incredible breakfast made for us by Bud and Joyce Shiffler.  We can’t thank them enough for their generosity.  Bud and I share the same Great Grandfather.  We met at a breakfast in of family in Phoenix a few months back and they offered to provide both food and lodging for us.  We had a great time getting to know them and enjoyed the view from their living room.

In Chimacum we stayed at Christ the Redeemer Lutheran Church.  Again, friendly people showing us great support.  We dined at the local café and had some great pie for dessert.  Calories mean nothing to cyclists….except that we need them!

Today we all wore a Davis Phinney Foundation jersey – as it is how we all know each other.  At this point, I have more different DPF jersey’s than I do POPs jerseys.  So, today we rode for Victory and for all those who have experienced the encouragement of a DPF Victory Summit.


Then it was time for bed – but not before Phil made our Day 3 sign.
