To my students: thanks for the sweet comment and well wishes. I think of you guys often. I can't wait to share more about the experience when I get back!
It rained again late last night, but this morning there was some blue sky and during the morning part of the ride, the sun slowly poked its way out. We had lunch in Weiser, fiddle capital of the world.
At our first rest stop, we ran into Emily, the other Mark Bosworth scholarship rider. We rode the whole rest of the way together in our awesome Mark Bosworth jerseys!

Over half way! Keep tuning in and commenting. They keep me going!
