Weary legs brought us home

We were up pretty early and riding before the day warmed up, which was a blessed relief. In fact, we were so early that Tiger came alongside at one point and told us that we were way ahead of schedule and we could afford to slow down if we wanted. 

It was another day on the expressway.  Breakfast was in a service station; ​mid morning coffee, service station; lunch, service station. 

The plan was to get to Penang via one of two large bridges, but as we approached the toll booth a guy flagged us down. “No bicycles- you must take the ferry.”

Great.  

It turned out that wasn’t too bad, although as we approached the ferry terminal we had a slow puncture on Blue Strawberry. Luckily it stayed up for long enough for us to get on the ferry and the we had plenty of time to change the tube on the ferry. 

Now we’re checked in to the Museum Hotel in George Town and looking forward to a rest day tomorrow. We’ve ridden ten days in a row and we’re starting to feel a little secondhand.
