First stop had to be Coffee Central to meet Jay Patel. Even though his shop is closed on Sundays, luckily he happened to be there for housekeeping. From there on it was pretty much highways until I took 17 from 85. The roads around Moccasin Creek State Park are phenomenal. Started to get dark too soon now since DST is over and wanted to enjoy the Suches loop so ended the day early by 6pm.

Highlights - Tire lost pressure in the morning at 27 from 42. Pumped it and my tire inflator went dead once the tire reached 37. It was rideable so went to the nearest gas station and topped it up. Monitored it throughout the day and seemed like it lost about 5 psi the entire day. Before ending my day, made sure I stopped at a Auto Parts store and picked up a tire inflator.
