Rode 52 miles from Lynx Pass to William Ford Resevoir Campground. Went through Radium, CO where all the ups and downs happened along with an unbelieveable double up hill that was not followed by a rewarding downhill. Though the downhill earlier in the day was rewarding enough as we had heard horror stories of the riders heading north having to go up some of what we went down. It was a hot day, difficult to hydrate with warm/semi-hot water and gatorade. Found a purple handkerchief to go with my newly found t-shirt, this outfit is shaping up nicely! Stopped at Radium RiverRunners and got some cold drinks, this was a nice treat as there was nothing indicated on the map. I will say, we are waiting for the Coloradians to step it up here with some much needed trail magic, cold drinks, invites for dinner, etc. If anyone is out there following this blog and in colorado, follow our spot and feel free to bring us a treat. ;~) So we saw our 3rd UPS truck on a back, dirt road that is sparsely populated, go brown! Made some spaghetti that turned to mush as we attempted to save some fuel for our stove and put the pasta in the water before boiling. We choked it down with some olive oil and parmesan and called it gourmet.
