Day #37, Ludington to Mt Pleasant

I didn't eat or sleep well last night, so I had doubts about how well I would ride the 113 miles today. Breakfast was at 6:00 and we loaded luggage at 6:30. I rode by myself pretty much the entire day except when I was being passed by other groups. Early in the day as I was passing a small one room schoolhouse, I slipped into some sandy gravel on the shoulder and fell off my bike. Suffered a bruise near my knee, but no road rash or blood, and I was able to ride on without any problems. We are staying at the Baymont Inn in Mt Pleasant and ate at Ponderosa tonight. Today was one of the last big tests of our tour, the last day over one hundred miles, we have a couple of big climbing days left in Vermont.
