Clouds started rolling in and I didn't want to risk getting wet. So I decided to skip PB Boulangerie again. I stopped to eat a full bar and a gel. Temperature was cooler, and I had more than enough water to make it back. The rest of the hilly part wasn't as hard as I expected. I think the 30 mm tires and lower tire pressure made it less miserable riding on the bumpy Old Country Rd. I didn't waste my energy sprinting the mostly flat and straight 6A from Truro to Ptown like I always had been doing before :)
It was only 98.4 miles when I got back to my place, so I had to loop around the town a bit. I knew there'd be a lot of traffic on Commercial St. The reason I didn't take Bradford is because of the nasty hill at Prince St where I could be easily blocked by a car not knowing what to do / yielding to pedestrians as that is a busy intersection and I had to unmount / mount on a steep hill. But the part of Commercial St past the Coast Guard station was also busy with several cars not knowing what to do. I got really upset because I really wanted to get 100 miles done.
Finally it was 100 when I got to the parking lot of Herring Cove Beach. and I turned around and take Bradford back to my place. What a day!
