Highlights:

Today started with a climb over Battle Pass (around 10,000 feet) and onto the scenic byway. The weather was beautiful all day long. The riding was a lot of ups and downs with slow steep climbs slow followed by fast steep descents.


I met a CDT thruhiker who after being stopped by the snow in southern Colorado “flipped” up to Wyoming to cover some ground. We visited on the side of the road and swapped stories. 


Today was the longest riding day in terms of mileage. I was happy to get into Rawlins and eat at a Thai restaurant’s all you can eat buffet followed by a pint of Cherry Garcia ice cream.
