Rain hiting the roof woke us up, a sound we haven´t heart since a long time. But this didn´t stop us from the urge to make it to the Pacific. Strange, when we started in rainy Newfoundland it was a very warm sunny day and here, in sunny California when we almost have reached our goal, it rained. From Ojai a peaceful biketrack leads all the way to Ventura. And then in Ventura, all of a sudden, the Pacific was in front of us. We were just very happy, proud and touched!
A woman came towards us, asking whether this was the end of our journey. "Almost", we replied, "just one more day to get to Los Angeles." But anyway, she was happy with us, congratulated and told us that also she did once the West Coast by bike and now with 65 she would love to do it again.
We drove on, we wanted to get a bit more direction LA. The day remained cold and wet, but we didn´t feel it.
Katrin & Frank are crossing Canada and the USA by bicycle. We started in St. John´s (Canada) the most eastern town on the North American Continent and are biking to Los Angeles in the USA. We started August 10th and hope to be in LA in December 2011. The journey is a longtime dream of Frank and we think the best way to see a country. Katrin is riding a Specialized bicycle with electro support, Bionix, made in Canada. Frank rides a Cannondale bike, made in the US.
