Culbertson, MT

Today we biked 92 miles in 7 hours including breaks, We had an awesome tailwind...we were riding 22 mph easily. We biked through the Fort Peck Reservation. Everyone warned us not to stop there, but the people we met were very friendly. The landscape was open but beautiful. It is greener than usual according to the locals. Lots of birds. We are 22 miles from the North Dakota border.
Tomorrow we meet up with Rita and Erik who are headed to Bozeman. We will do an exchange of gear...give away the warm stuff and they are bringing us more gear for hot weather.
We are camped at another city park for free...lots of other cyclists are here too. It's fun meeting other people. We feel sorry for those who are headed west into the wind. We are lucky!
We plan to take a short day to Willeston---40 miles.
All the best...love, Therese and Doug

  1. Fabulous photographs, folks!

    It looks like it is going to get hot and stay hot, so that hot weather gear is coming at just the right time:)

    We'll keep hoping for strong westerly winds . . .
