Here comes the sun

Finally!!! After sloshing around in the rain and riding under grey skies, the sun has decided to come out for the first time on my trip.

I feel fantastic and my spirits are high! I started pedaling south and was amazed at how well I felt. I was really comfortable in the saddle and my legs felt strong. I increased my average speed by nearly 25% and it felt better than ever. I had a huge grin on my face as I road the rolling hills south towards Boston.

I felt a small accomplishment when I crossed the state line into New Hampshire and another victory when I crossed into Mass. Finally I was making some real headway and I was loving it.
