GaviOhTa, not GavioTAH.

Day 7:  Gaviota State Beach --> Point Mugu Sycamore 

Miles: 87.17 (453.1 total)
Elev. gain: 2,063 ft (22,279 total)
Pint count:  3 (37 total)

Day 7 wasn't especially remarkable, except that we think we both probably broke our record for distance cycled in one day:


 87 miles! And pretty fast too, if we do say so ourselves.

We stopped in Santa Barbara for lunch, and Sam couldn't resist getting dessert, which ended up taking them so long to make that the server brought us free churros. So we ended up with an entire other meal for dessert. Which Sam ate just about all of.


Why yes, that is an ice cream sundae in a 10 inch cast iron pan. 

On an unrelated note, Sam has gained weight on this bike trip.

Here is a picture of Sam trying to digest dessert while riding through Santa Barbara. 


We were so full from lunch that for the first time this trip, we elected not to way dinner at a restaurant even though we could have. So we loaded up on snacks and headed to our campground at Point Mugu. On the way, we passed some sort of air force something-or-other. Here you go, Brians:


And that's about it for our longest day of the trip, and possibly our lives (as of yet).
