It seemed especially challenging with the heat to make the great exit from South Carolina. Much of that too was due in part to the steady increase in bugs. Strange, too, as soon as I made the crossing into North Carolina, the weather changed, and so did the bug situation.
To be now, officially, on the Atlantic Coast feels so good. Also, for the first time since probably San Diego, I felt a true tailwind. The ride leaving the ferry on Fort Fischer en route to Carolina Beach was probably one of the best I've ever had. The tailwind almost made it feel like I had another gear.
In roughly 60 miles, I'll begin making the trek out along the Carolina Coast to Cape Hatteras. I keep hearing that the weather is going to continue to be nice, that would good.
