Closely followed by a sighting of Bicen
After few km of riding through flat farmland where all varieties if fruit and vegetables seemed to be growing they started to look a bit better
Then we stopped at a cross road for some buffalo jerky to pick up our spirits
Then it was on into the Delta which is where the Sacramento River flows into the Bay and we could once again see Mt Diablo. See how Goose is setting a cracking pace in front.
There where numerous bridges to cross and we rode into a moderate head wind for once. There goes the sag wagon.
While at Rio Vista we took the opportunity to visit Al the Wops for a steak sandwich. Cheap and cheerful with American bar out front. As we arrived Pedals was immediately captured by one of the female patrons and launched onto the dance floor, luckily he escaped after the song finished. The town of Locke was about a 100 years old and very authentic in it's antiquity and made of wood and about 3 m below the level of the canal.
Today we head for Napa and I expect we will stop at a couple if wineries along the way.
Ferdy is back in yellow somehow. This morning the wind was really strong and the route had little shoulder so we abandoned the ride and have commuted to Napa where we will now take on a leisurely wine tour for the rest of the day.
