Day 8 - The ride from Rock Springs to Winnamucca was a hot one. It was mostly freeway so the 538 miles went reasonably fast. The temperature however was over a hundred degrees. That made it feel like riding into an open oven.
At one point the girls decided to hit the rest room and switch drivers without letting us know. When they did not catch up to us, we became worried and pulled off on the side of the road. After about 10 minutes, just as we were going to find the nearest exit and head back, the truck came by at about 80+ miles per hour. Shift change! Without seeing her, I knew Julie was driving. We jumped back on the bikes and barely managed to catch her.
We hit come sporadic rain on the ride. Not enough to get too wet. As a matter of fact, it actually cooled us down a bit as it evaporated. It did however manage to make the bikes even dirtier. Tomorrow we leave early and will be home well before dinner.
The following are some pictures taken on the road of our group formation.
