This route is bullshit

Today we started off with some food to get things going. I had a package of Bogols that I got at Panera the previouse day and they were delicious. I have now decided that I will try to get something each day that will help with breakfast the next day. To that end I have a very delicious looking muffin waiting for tomorrow morning that I am pretty pumped about. Once we got start we made our way up to Rhinebeck and then started across towards the CT border. As you have no doubt read already shortly after leaving Rhinebeck Billy had a bit of bad luck. He was overtaking me when it happened so once we pulled over he asked me to go back to the mobil station we had just left. I went back only to be told that no they don't have anything like that about an adjustable wrench. I have a feeling that might have been BS. As you have also read by now Billy had some luck on the caliber of winning the lotto today so it turned out OK in the end. When we stopped heading in to pine plains we stopped at a pizza place to get water and regroup and were treated to their (not) fantastic service. We proceeded to head to town where the second place we were expecting to go for the day was closed due to the fact it was saturday. The first was the bike shop in Rhinebeck. Luckily we ended up in nice little bar, had some bears and got some advice from the locals. The title of this blog post was the exact quote from the nice man at the bar after he took a look at our route. We were able to enjoy one of the best downhills of the trip so far and made it to the hotel around 7:15 with some daylight to spare. We are now done with one state and we embark on the heart of the connecticut section tomorrow. Wish us luck because I am a little nervous about the litchfield hills, but then I think I have been a little nervous about every leg so far and we have done OK to date.
