WE GOT YOUR ATLANTIC OCEAN RIGHT HERE!
WEDNESDAY! This is it! It's Humpday and before we took the Riding4Beer Magical Mystery Tour (sponsored by the cool refreshing taste of Budweiser!) on the road this morning we absolutely h_mped! - didn't you? After that, it was time for us to quit fooling around and start heading east again. We cruised out of Tampa under cloudy skies (it rained all night) and trusted the Weather Channel (normally pathalogical liars) that the storms had passed.
Our first stop was some little B.S. town called Lake Wales literally dead center in the middle of Florida. Their claim to fame is something called "Spook Hill" where your car (or motorcycle) is supposed to roll uphill. Okay, we parked on the starting line, we put the bike in neutral and it definitely started rolling - DOWNHILL! These lying bastards even named their kids' school "Spook Hill Elementary School" and stole the image of Casper the Flying Ghost (without paying royalties to Hanna-Barberra) as their mascot! This is what we say to Lake Wales; "SPOOK THIS!"
Anyway, there's more important news to report than rip off tourist attractions. When you circle the United States counter-clockwise (like us - haven't you figured that out yet?) you only have to make three left turns and we made the first one today. You guessed it, we hit the Atlantic Ocean at Vero Beach, Florida and turned left (north) on the famous Highway A1A - the easternmost road in North America! Folks, it took 4,837 miles, but we've now crossed the continent from coast to coast. We rode for about 100 miles up the Atlantic seaboard to Cape Canaveral (Kennedy Space Center, Baby!) and finally called it quits in Titusville (primarily because of the first three letters of the name). Tomorrow we have a busy day with lots planned, but first we're headed out for dinner, a few (gallons) of beer and to search for those first three letters!...
FOUR PICS AND A VIDEO TO PROVE THOSE SPOOK HILL BASTARDS LIE!
Would you want your kids to learn to read at this school? 4,800 hundred miles and finally the Atlantic Ocean!
We turned left on the easternmost road in America! "Roger Houston, we are go for launch here at the Cape!"
