The route from Honeyman State Park to our night's destination, Sunset Bay State Park , was for the most part several miles inland away from the coast with occasional meanders back to seaside communities. The faithful wind was again at our back, blowing us steadily down the highway. The route would have been ideal if it had ended in Coos Bay but the last 5-10 miles through Charleston were not the highlights of the trip, passing as they did through some fairly depressed neighborhoods. The hiker/biker sites at Sunset Bay were spartan to say the least, and the earlier arrivals told us they had found it full of trash which they had been nice enough to pick up. I'd bypass this particular campground if I did this ride again. Still, it's a place to rest our head after some 55 miles of travel. We are looking at another long day in the saddle tomorrow as well with our destination being Humbug Mountain State Park .
