Babak at Plymouth Rock

Dave & Babak roll their front wheels in to the Atlantic Ocean

The last few days of the trip went by very quickly. We zipped through Massachusetts and dipped into Connecticut before ending our trip at Plymouth Rock.

On the first day of our trip Babak collected a sample of the Pacific Ocean in a small shampoo bottle which he managed to carry with him intact across America. After completing the trip, Babak now collects a sample of the Atlantic Ocean.

Filled with energy and excitement we biked 76 miles straight with out stopping until we reached Plymouth Rock. At Plymouth we met some friends and treated ourselves to a nice dinner at a restaurant. None of the hotels had any vacancy, but the Sheraton Inn let us stay in the conference room.
The next day, babak and I went off in different directions. He biked up to Boston to start his senior year at MIT, and I biked to Providence - home of my alma mater - Brown University.
