After two difficult days of riding, today’s 75 mile ride was a welcome relief for some although there was an optional "bonus" mile route that added an additional 50 (including a 25 mile climb) for a total of 124. Only 8 of us on this tour, myself included, opted for the extra. Maybe I need to get my head checked?
The weather for today’s ride was perfect. We only had two sag stops today one at mile 23 and the other at mile 55 at Chimney Rock Monument. Pagosa Springs was our destination.
It was fun to end the day by sitting in the San Juan river to soothe our tired legs and joints while enjoying a nice cold beer.
We're all getting tired but only 3 more days left. Tomorrow we enter New Mexico our final state.
Today's miles 124
Total Miles 1674
Today's climb 8400 feet
Total climbing 76500 Max elevation 10,864
IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW SLOWLY YOU GO SO LONG AS YOU DO NOT STOP!!
THE FINISH LINE IS NEAR! |
