As far as riding went, today was an easy route. The trek was only 60 miles including some hills and little elevation change. We completed the ride in just over three hours. This was the last day in Colorado! I hope to be back to visit sometime soon!
The crew members decided to bring a whole new element to our daily challenges. I must first tell you that the temperature today was 110 degrees! Despite this ridiculous heat, we enjoyed the challenges that the crew members gave us. Several pacelines tried to finish two liters and gallons of milk that were left over from the friendship visit. We finished a two liter of soda and some milk which made for an interesting 20 mile ride into town. Our stomachs were feeling it by the time we reached Lamar!
We enjoyed some free time this afternoon at the swimming pool. Dinner tonight was provided by a local family who prepared a wonderful meal. This marks the half-way point of the Journey. I can't believe how fast it is going!
