MS Coast the Coast!

This ride was awesome! Saturday was beautiful weather. Great riding all day with varying scenes from beaches and ocean to the pine barrens. We had dinner at the Tuckerton Seaport, which was delicious. Then I got to hang out with the Vitamin Shoppe team who had rented cabins at a campground. We had a campfire going, ordered some pizzas, had smores, and some beers. Sunday started off very overcast, with rain in the forecast. It held off for most of the day, until the last 20 or so miles, when it started to pour. I ended up riding in a group with 5 others, 3 of us were sporting the Vitamin Shoppe jerseys. We got to the coast guard station in cape may at something like 12:30, and only 2 people had finished before us. It was awesome, even with the rain! We hung out at the coast guard station for a few hours. They had all sorts of barbecue food and drinks. Then we went to a hotel and cleaned ourselves up. Later that night we had an amazing dinner at The Lobster House. Everyone crashed pretty early, after the 170 miles in 2 days. In the morning we grabbed coffees and walked on the boardwalk. Then we grabbed breakfast only a few feet from the sand. Such an awesome weekend! Thanks to all the Vitamin Shoppe guys for making me a part of the team, and especially Mike Provost for hooking everything up!
