Written by Curtis Day 33 – June 30 – 62 Miles, 2,034 feet climbing (Casper to Douglas) After two days in Casper everyone was eager to get back on the road this morning.  So much so that Chris was the one proposing to roll 45min earlier than initially planned after the entire team showed up … Continue reading Onward to Douglas

Written by Dave Day 32 – June 29 Seems like we’ve been running around all day – hardly very restful but that’s how it goes when you roll your own adventures. We started the day killing the brekkie buffet as any good cyclist would. We held up the team’s reputation. After brekkie we hit the … Continue reading Casper observations

Written by Dave Day 31 – June 28 – 99 Miles, 2,240 feet climbing (Shoshoni to Casper) Ok, the title is wrong. We only rode 99 miles to reach Casper. I couldn’t talk anyone in the bunch into riding in circles around the hotel carpark to ensure we actually rode the full 100 miles. Regardless, … Continue reading Century ride to Casper

Written by Nancy Day 30 – June 27 – 33 Miles, 1,283 feet climbing (Thermopolis to Shoshoni) A very short day to the middle of nowhere...  As Dave previously mentioned, today was a staging day, to get us as close to Casper as we could get to allow us to arrive there on Friday.  There … Continue reading A nice canyon and a hotel on the edge

Written by Dave Day 29 – June 26 – 55 Miles, 1,545 feet climbing (Meeteetse to Thermopolis) Last night we looked at the wind forecast for today – headwinds building through the morning – and decided to get an early start today. We had brekkie at the hotel and were rolling by 6:10AM. I know, … Continue reading Early finish and a soak

Written by Dave Day 28 – June 25 – 32 Miles, 1,600 feet climbing (Cody to Meeteetse) Cody is sort of funky - they have these arty cows everywhere. They also have stacks of gun and ammo shops. I liked this beefy cow in front of the subway shop. Early on the trip, Pete set … Continue reading Changing roles to Meeteetse

Written by Dave Day 27 – June 24 – 102 Miles, 3,360 feet climbing (Grant Village to Cody) Today I’ll start with the finish, just because it was so spectacular. We were due to stop at 67 miles at the Rex Hale Forest Service campground. When we arrived there the wind was blowing a gale … Continue reading Blown out of Yellowstone

Written by Chris Day 26 – June 23 – 55 Miles, 3,060 feet climbing (West Yellowstone to Grant Village) Today's ride was billed as an "active rest day". Only Dave would call 54 miles and approximately 3k feet of climbing a rest day. We left the lodge at 6:50 am with me (Chris) taking over … Continue reading Yellowstone Delivers

Written by Dave Day 25 – June 22 – 74 Miles, 3,660 feet climbing (Ennis to West Yellowstone) A long hard day to West Yellowstone. We were up early, getting out of camp at 7:30 and boy, I’m glad we did. Overnight the wind switched direction 180 degrees and we had wind on the nose … Continue reading Long hard day to West Yellowstone

Written by Dave Day 24 – June 21 – 74 Miles, 2,680 feet climbing (Dillon to Ennis) I had the best night sleep of the entire trip so far last night. It may have made me a little cheery and anxious to get going this morning. Or at least my tent mate gave me that … Continue reading Rolling Virginia City
