Milford, UT

Who knew the desert would be so deserted? I heard I could be without phone service for almost a week. So I can only post photos if I find some wifi, or I can make text posts like this with a wired computer.

So, today’s 52.3 miles to Milford, UT was a breeze. The stops for the next week are probably going to be the only towns along the way. The no service stretches are like 60-80 miles, I know tomorrow is 84 miles from town to town. But whatever. I say bring it on!

More importantly I met a dude roller blading across the country today. Wild.

Great Scott!

As you can see I fashioned my tshirt into a headband to protect my
ears from the sun. (they're looking like beef jerky) Later on I will
use duct tape to fashion it back into a shirt.

Cedar City, UT

62.5 miles today. One huge climb, one huge drop. Pretty sure it was
the second highest elevation of the trip.

Got some bad info off the maps as well as google, and got stuck at a
KOA with their outragous fees. But spliting with Chris makes it not so
bad. Plus they have 4 dollar all you can eat pancakes so in the
morning I'm going to do my best to get my money's worth.

Smokey

67.4 miles today to the Hitch n' Post campground in Panguitch, UT.

There is a cat here that looks just like my grandma's cat. And get
this, they are both named Smokey!

Also out of curiosity I added up my grand total miles. So far I've
pedaled 3513.2 miles from Coney Island.

Red Canyon Bike Path

This was an absolute pleasure to cruise through. At times it was far
enough away from the road that you couldn't even hear the cars. There
were views of tunnels through mountains. My only complaint was that it
only lasted about 4-5 miles.

Esvalante, UT

52.1 of some of the most extreme miles yet. Camping with Chris in
Escalante, UT.

The photo is of a ridicules road we took. I kept laughing at how much
of a joke it was to be there on a bike.
