Chillin in Fallon

Sorry I haven't posted in a couple of days.
The trip from Wyoming to Nevada was a bit difficult. Going into Ely on Thursday was a killer. 150 miles on dirt roads, well dirt for 120 miles and then mud for the rest. 30 miles of rainy asphalt finished to ride.
We were tired and hungry, we rolled into Ely around 9:00 PM and the legion post had a spaghetti
dinner waiting and ready. Thanks ladies and gents.
The next day was our longest ride of the trip from Ely to Fallon.All hard surface but hot and long
260 miles I think. Much needed rest days. Trip has taken it's toll on all of us. Even our intrepid writer has some kind of infection on his face right under my camera eye. Not
good.
California here we come. It's going to be hard to say goodbye to there fine men and women.
