Day 13 Chelsea, OK to Sapulpa, OK 63.1 miles

There's no place like home, there's no place like home..


I had to navigate my way through Tulsa today. I hate getting through the cities. It's not the city centres themselves, they are usually okay; well signposted, grid layout, nice buildings... It's the sprawling suburbs that get me. Bad neighbourhoods, practically shanty towns and white flight style driving on the highways passing through. Nobody wants to wait too long at a stop light round here. Had to take a 5 mile detour and enter Tulsa on a different road as the traffic was too bad on 66.

Cycled til the storm that had been threatening all day broke around 4.30. Luckily my GPS found a hotel a mile and a half away, on route. Had a fantastic Mexican meal in the restaurant next door and my first alcoholic drink(s) in 2 weeks.
