Stage 8: hump stage

Eight down and seven to go. We started the day in the pre-dawn hours lining up. Class one bikes first. Today five started.

Brent and Dan were giving the EX a once over.

Once we started Dan, Dean, and myself drove a good distance together. Then as all days we drift apart. I peeled off for gas around 40 miles. It was a great morning ride.

There was no hosted lunch, so we were on our own. Later on the day another perfect ride!

Imagine sitting on this bike for 9+ hours at 36 MPH. That’s what I’m doing. And loving it!

Once we finished I was greeted by people who have followed along. It’s so cool to see everyone.

And we ended the day with a perfect score. We made all the miles.
