Today is our second rest day — and a well needed one since we’ve pedaled 396 miles in the past four days. I talked to a lot of our riders over breakfast and they say they’re feeling better today than on our first rest day in Boise. I’m feeling the same way. Apparently, all this exercise is actually making us stronger.
Suellen drove up from Denver to join us – always a happy occurrence. Anne Petrie, one of our old friends from England, came along with her. Anne flew all the way from London to see the Wild West and visit our biking crew. The highlight of the day was a visit to the National Historic Trails Interpretive Center. It’s essentially a museum — with lots of interactive features — that highlights the history of the Oregon, California and Mormon Trails. Loads of fun and definitely worth a visit if you’re in the Casper area. (More info at: http://bit.ly/n8nGPz).
With the help of the local chapter of the National MS Society, I also did a radio interview this morning and a TV interview this afternoon. I’ll send a link to the website as soon as I can. Until then, it’s nap time.
