We did 88 miles today over a couple of tough passes
and into Jackson, WY. The second climb was murder. A
lot of riders had to walk their bikes for part of the
way up. The early part of the ride might have been
easy except we found ourselves riding into a stiff
headwind.
Tomorrow we climb over the Continental Divide. That
involves a climb to over 9600 ft. The total ride is 88
miles again. The bad news is that we understand that
some of the road is torn up so about 15 miles may be
on dirt roads. We end up in DuBois, WY.
The day after is 79 miles to Riverton, WY and then we
have a 120 mile day into Casper, WY. After that, a
rest day which will be much needed.
The good weather is suppose to continue. Please drop
in your local church and light a candle in praise of
Westerly winds. We need them.
