Tour de Coast Stage 18

Checking out of Arcata and Eureka we had a pleasant and fairly level ride through old California farm country, where all the cows are happy and all the farmhouses are Victorian. We had lunch in Fernbridge, named so because the town has a bridge, and then rolled into Rio Dell a town that coping with the fact that they are not on the main road anymore.

ok -the cows look like a postcard pic. You're fooling me now. Either that or you really did have to ride close on the shoulder, more like the shoulder of a cow. wow.
