Not much to say, other than "Yah, a day off!" Jeff headed out to get new tires on his bike while I went in search of a laundry mat. Returnig with clean clothes and time to do some photo updates (I hope y'all appreciate that) I did some recanting of days gone by. We had a quick bite of lunch and planned out our next three days. From here, we'll head to Pahrump, NV. Then up early to beat the heat and pass through Death Valley to Exeter, CA and finally up to Bridgeport. We've decided to bypass Yosimite in favour of some outstanding roads and avoiding park traffic and more park fees. Brigeport is just South of Reno, where we're not sure what we'll do up there, as we're sticking to 4 days of riding and one day off (does a body good).
One shot for you, to see how tough we have it. Not a bad little hotel but we've decided to hunt for Best Western's the rest of the way, with a new 'preferred membership' waiting for us in Pahrump (reminds me of the Little Drummer Boy; Pahrump pa pum pum!)
By the way, a few call outs:
- Fay Myer in Denver, CO: excellent price and service on my new tires, although the sales people in the gear section sucked old sweaters.
- Dillon Inn, Dillon: owner was so accommodating and the venue was perfect.
- Best Western in Montrose: $20 off second night stay and a hot breakfast included, plus a bike wash area and rags.
