Easy Biking Day for the New England Shore Trekkers



Welcome back to day 4 of the New England Shore Coast Trek. After a relaxing night at the Days Inn of Mystic Seaport, we got up and munched on our continental breakfast before setting out for Burlingame State Park. Cruising  through the town of Mystic, we made a quick pit stop at the local bike shop, Mystic Cycles. There we made some small tuneups as well as made a new friend, the shop owners dog Reya.
From there we cruised down Route 1. At around 12 we stopped for lunch at the Westerly Stop and Shop and scarfed down an assortment of fruit, chips, and wraps.  We continued onward to Burlingame, finishing up the last six miles with ease.  Upon our arrival we quickly set up camp and got to cooking our dinner of grilled cheese and hotdogs before the storm rolled through.  The campers are spending the night in their tents playing cards, excited to reach Block Island tomorrow.
