Today I awoke shivering again. It amazes me how cold the deserts get at night, and how quickly they warm in the morning. Anyway, I quickly packed up and headed down the mountain for some breakfast.
Here is a pic of my "campsite."
Anyway, after eating I rode. And rode. And rode. Yeah, turns out 150 km is a lot to ride. Over the mountains and through the desert, to Vale we go...
In total, most of today was riding without much else to occupy my time; a few tens of miles of mountain, and then 60 miles of desert. I did stop at a bar partway through and get a beer though, that was nice.
Pictures of desert.
My trophy pics of the mountains I've scaled (The last one is cute, the hill thinks it deserves an elevation sign")
One sign you never want to see.
And a pic I took of my bike setup while resting under a rundown building, in case you were wondering what the setup looks like together.
Once all those miles were behind me I met up with Nate and his dad at the motel in Vale (all the land was agricultural, nowhere to pitch a tent) We head out tomorrow for the Boise area, which should be a nice break compared to today!
