A short day in Eureka, on the road they call the loneliest in America, spent mostly on the bike’s bearings — and on the angels, sewn a stitch at a time between towns.
“Not every day on a bicycle is about the bicycle.”
Nine and a half kilometres. Some days the whole job is maintenance, food and getting the next one right.
