Well, it seems to have warmed up a bit. We’re now at about the lowest elevation of the trip, about 3200 feet, and it has gotten pretty warm, I think pushing 100 degrees. No worries though, we beat the heat by getting up at 6 am and finishing our 60 mile day by around 3 pm. we’ve been rolling through jaw-droppingly beautiful desert landscape – giant cliffs, boulders, mesas in every hue of red, orange, yellow, brown…the photos will not do it justice. The campground we’re at now, lee’s ferry, is especially amazing – a postcard everywhere you turn. The road into here looks like you’ve been transplanted to mars. Tomorrow we’re getting up at 4 am to hit the road before sunrise.

– a pair of sunglasses
Hello. It is I. Mike Tyson. You may know me. Lot’s of people do.
I was wondering if you could help a fella out. I’ve seem to have misplaced my tiger.
Or as I call him, “Le Tigre”. I kick it 80’s style. I’m cool like that.
Anyways, if you Bike Bums come upon a lost tiger in your travels, I would appreciate it if you let me know. I’ll send out Don King to pick the big meow meow up.
Yours truly,
-Mikey
