Day 20 - May 20 2010 - Santa Cruz, CA to Merced, CA

We departed the CRUZ at 9:30AM, Ben returning to Holister to get his Corbin Trunk back, it was repaired overnight and I headed for the 300+ shops of the Gilroy Factory Outlet mall to check out some kicks from DC Skate.

For once it was not raining and the temperature was about 25C which was very pleasant, plus light winds too.

We both meet up on the road (not planned) CA #162 which is a 4 line 65MPH highway just East of Gilroy, so we traveled into the San Joaquin valley which is very dry and flat, but there are some very impressive irrigation systems including canals etc. This is a big farming area with lots of farms all pumping water onto the fields.

Our overnight stop is in Merced.
