So today was what we called an easy day. No major passes, mostly flat, and best of all only 71 miles! Now I don't know if you think that is a short distance or a long one but a year ago that would have been an insurmountable feat to me. I would never have expected to bike that far but I did and it was actually a pretty great day.
After a great breakfast with a few local veterans in Sandpoint Idaho we rode for 30 miles and stopped for our first snack. It was a "healthy" snack consisting of oatmeal raisin cookies, baked by our lovely veterans in Sandpoint, and some delicious Nutella. From there we carried on for another 20 miles and stopped for food again, but this time for lunch. Then on our final leg of the ride into Bull Lake MT we were met half way by two fire department vehicles that escorted us into town. As we rode through the town we were greeted by many locals welcoming us and wishing us well on the rest of our ride. Oh wait! I almost forgot the best part. As we were being escorted, the flock let me take the lead and bring us victoriously into camp. So like I said, all in all today was a pretty great day.
So until next time,
