mile 35 Between Oceanside and Baldwin

Riding into the sea side resort town of Baldwin was a hassle. The roads were not of high quality, and my buttocks were itchy and sore as hell in the heat. In the town center, I met Kevin and Marybeth. They were hardcore amateur bikers who had already done 47 miles that day. They mentioned that the weather was too hot and that I needed to take salt and potassium tablets to keep my muscles from cramping. I went with them into this nearby Italian restaurant called Seven Brothers to get some food. The people there were super nice and allowed me to keep my bike inside their store. Additionally, they let me recharge my smart phone in their kitchens. I talked with the restaurant owner about food prices, and he mentioned that his business was taking a beating from the cost of meats, pasta, and gas. More expensive food and gas means less tourists to the resort town. I told the store owner about my blog and thanked him for letting me use his kitchen's power outlet. He asked me to mention his restaurant on my blog. So here goes: Seven Brothers Italian Restaurant makes an absolutely awesome Clam Rigatoni, it was so good that it literally melted in my mouth as I downed the entire plate!!!
