day 6: rochester ro lockport 68 miles
perfect weather from dawn to dusk as we rode on trail and road and back to trail...had lunch in holley at diner where two other long haul biking couples had happened to stop. one from the state of washington headed to bar harbor from june 1 until aug 20...the other from michigan headed to the cape..our ages...we are junior trekkers by comparison..but we are feeling very happy...and a touch giddy...kind of like the bike group of 5 middle age guys huddled under an overpass smoking strong weed at 9am...not at all the troublemakers we feared...other events...passed a garlic depot...see pix...long talks with great kids in Albion who bike...and a father and son doing buffalo to albany...the beauty of western ny along the canal is striking....in residential areas and rural fields...each town with well tended 100 year old buildings..not at all like the desperate disrepair in the eastern and central towns. tomorrow we roll into buffalo at an easy 35 miles
