Day #46 - An Early Day Off Work.

Today was more of an easy/quiet day. We didn't bike an outrageous amount of milage and nothing exciting really happened. [Except for one thing. Cameron's tire got a flat within the first mile of taking off. After fixing that and continuing on, one of the other MS riders had a flat as well..... So we helped her out like any gentlemen would!] Biking in Nevada is not as thrilling as the other states we have been through. For example, the roads. Nevada's roads are long and straight going up one mountain, into a valley and then back up another mountain. You can see for miles and miles down the roads.......It's really annoying to be able to see where you'll be in 30 minutes. Other than that the biking has been fabulous! We biked with the other MS group all day and will be for the next few days. We made it to what is known as "The loneliest road" and will be biking it pretty much for the rest of the way. So far, there is still a lot of traffic but we know it will become "lonely". With only biking 60 miles today we finished around 2 o'clock leaving all day to chill. We swam, watched some tv, went to a bike shop and ate dinner with the MS group tonight. It is a lot of fun getting to know all of these people and exchanging stories. Tomorrow we are biking around 70 miles with the MS bikers to a town called Eureka.

  1. Hi Son,
    I posted a moment ago and lost everything - nice - I was saying so I'll try to say it again.
    Wow, 140 miles!
    I am so happy that you are with a good group of young MS riders. Praise Jesus!
    I'm most grateful to Pamela for taking you in as one of hers. ;)
    It is so neat to hear your short stories of the other bikers you keep meeting up with on the bike trail - can't wait to hear more details.
    So I will work on getting you home on the 31st of July. How exciting the fun is almost over.
    Can't wait to see you - real soon.
    BTW, I keep hearing that Garner State Park in Texas is dried up due to the drought we're having. We're still going just waiting for you. ;)
    Love you, mom

  2. Hey Stephen,
    At least while you're riding down the "loneliest
    road in America" you're with friends and you can keep each other company.
    I'm back home now from the scout's high adventure trip. So now I can keep up with your blog a lot easier. On the road I was using Todd's Iphone.
    You've made great progress and I know you're family will be excited when you're home, especially your mom. I got to meet your new sister-in-law tonight at Philip's and Maresa's Texas reception. They make a nice couple.
    Take care friend,
    Mr. F.
