I woke up late. I was tired. I was hungry. It was a bad situation at the start. It was raining. I saddled up and started to ride, seventy miles isn't too far... I've done it before I can do it again.
Turns out I couldn't do it. I rode 0.4 miles before calling up cousin Jacy with a plan. Salt lick barbeque was a place I really wanted to go and was only 25 miles outside town. If Jacy could meet me there we can both eat a bunch of barbeque and then he can give me a ride the rest of the way.... Fingers crossed he answers the phone. I made the call, pride nowhere to be found and he completely bailed me out. We even met two people in the bar area that were so excited about my biking that they bought us a six pack AND left a selection of beers next to my bike. Cool people, love bike trip.
Also this barbeque was unreal. The best brisket I've ever had. Ever. My only regret is that it is so far away. I crave that food right now. With every waking moment I want that barbeque. Every. Single. Moment. I'm legitimately tearing up a bit thinking about it. Great Q.
Went back to Jacy's place and met his lovely pets (I'm on team Daisy I think) before heading out to a onesie party at his friends place. I bought a batman onesie which I might never take off. So comfy. Great people over there though, fine group.
