Today was a 80 mile ride from Delta to Payson. I wa da sweep today along with Mike from Maryland. There were 3 flats by pace lines in front of us that we had to stop for within the first 8 miles which made for very slow travel from the get go.
Eventually our whole team staged up about 4 miles out and rode in with Natalie, a 12 year old with CP on her sit down cycle as well as several ladies of a local cycling team.
We enjoyed a team lunch from ladies at the local senior center.
Following lunch we got to go to the laundromat which is a blessing after being in the desert for a week.
For dinner we had giant subs and then our weekly team meeting where we go over policies and procedures as well as a recap and foreshadowing of the weeks prior and ahead, respectively.
To end the night a large group of us walked about a half mile to a local dairy bar to get milkshakes. Nothing hits the spot quite like a strawberry milkshake after being in the desert so long.
Tomorrow we head to Salt Lake City and back into civilization so hopefully I will have lots of pictures to post and a lot to talk about.
Thank you for keeping the team in your thoughts and prayers.
Love & Honor,
Beau
