Day 6 - to Holiday Inn Express & Suites, Pittsburgh North Shore

Miles: 43, Ascent: 1,875 feet, Descent: 2,366 feet

Today was a surprisingly tiring ride. I only needed to cover 43 miles but I think the big climbs yesterday fatigued me. I made it to downtown Pittsburgh today and am looking forward to starting the GAP trail tomorrow. Quieter and safer will be nice 

These folks were camping close to me last night but I never got invited to dinner, to do my laundry, or watch HBO

Last night this cat jumped in my lap for scratches. This morning as I was getting ready to leave he came charging across the parking lot to once again get some attention

My wife and I purchased a Sylvansport Go camper 2 years ago. We have never seen another one camping, parked, or on the road. I spotted this today

Downtown Pittsburgh. The yellow bridge in the foreground is the Rachel Carson bridge. The one behind it the Andy Warhol bridge. Two famous former residents

Surveyors statue I spotted on the way to the hotel. Sculpture is one of my favorite art forms. I posed for that statue in Florence for hours
