Well, the only bad news for today is that my good friend Skip couldn't join us. He came down with something yesterday and was throwing up all night last night. He looked better at the first sag stop (picture with me on the right) and might be able to ride tomorrow. Tomorrow is suppose to be another tough day over the Rockies so he'll have to see how he feels. His presence was missed today. Oh and one other thing... my butt doesn't stop hurting... according to one of my fellow riders, it will continue to hurt until day 52... isn't that the last day we ride? Guess I might have to ride back to San Fran without a sore butt!! :) :)
The best part of today is that I am feeling magnificant! I feel strong and excited to climb! I love climbing... I'd rather climb a mountain any day than ride flat... it's just sooo fun! So today was my type of day. And a harder climb is coming tomorrow and I can't wait - I know we go over 11,000 feet! YIPEE HURRAY!

Oh and one more thing.... I have a hotel room to myself for 3 nights... super nice! I can take up all the room I want and when I get up at 4am, I can turn on the lights without waking anyone! Who would have known that I would only pay for a triple room and end up with a double the whole and a single for several nights... that is quite the deal!
You can see that I learned to take a photo of myself while I was riding (above) and I am super happy - it took three tries to get my whole face in - not the most flaterring but it works :)
Life is amazingly good....
