Day 122 – new friends, sweet beach side roads, All Blacks take the Rugby World cup!!!!

I was up and on the road by 6am as I wanted to make it to Santa Barbara by 9am kick off time for the Rugby World Cup final between the All Blacks and Australia.
Day 21
I got maybe 20 mins down the road in the pitch black and got a flat tire. I wasn’t happy but fixed it right up and carried on.The sunrise was awesome again and I made it just by 9. I couldn’t find a bar that was open so found a café with wifi and listened to the game on the radio, old school styles. Super bloody happy to hear the AB’s win and it made for a smile on my face all day long. Huge congrats to the All Blacks.
AB AB dan C AB score AB win WC
Santa Barbara was beautiful as ever and I cruised the beach front right through town and out the south side. I had been here before when I crewed for Yol anda Holder when she walked from LA to Oakl and . Made me think of that great fun trip all day.

The rest of the day was through crops and along beaches which was great. Super cheap food here, I saw 12 avoca dos for $5, amazing. The beaches were so nice I really wanted to stop and jump in but knew I wouldn’t go any more if I did.

I wasn’t feeling it all afternoon and had to stop a bit to eat and get my body fueled up to move some more, No real number of miles today needed but wanted to get around 70-75 in just so the next ones would be smaller.
I made 75.

As I rode in a English guy said hi and I dropped in about the rugby to quickly get a big NOOOOOO and me thinking there was a aussie sitting there said sorry but we won, To only find out it was a kiwi lady who was waiting to watch it tomorrow. She wasn’t happy at all and it didn’t matter what I said she hates me. Oh well Sorry .
They invited us over for a beer and a chat which was awesome, thanks to Steve and his friends who are all from Engl and I think for having us and showing us a good time. Legends.
Ill be getting almost right into LA tomorrow and will leave just a bit to Huntington beach for the next day, so cool to be this close. Can’t tell you the exact amount as I have no reception here. Not far anyways.
So another cool fun day out in the sunshine of California.
Thankyou Universe you are to awesome!!
