59.5 miles. I know the rides are technically more challenging but I
feel like I reached a new level. Things feel easier.

Went 74.8 miles today and caught up with Chris. We are camping in
Hanksville, UT. Also spending the night is this dude that's been
riding around the desert for a month now. He's a fun guy with some
good stories. I aspire to be like him when I grow up.

It is so strange out here. Around every bend I want to stop to take
pictures.

This part is completely fictional.

A few days ago these guys told us about closed motel. They explained
how one could enter and that they enjoyed a night there.

So yesterday 52.7 miles into the middle of nowhere we found it. Chris
decided to push on (we'll most likely meet up again) but I spent the
night.

Utah is unlike anything I've ever seen.

73 miles to Blanding, UT. Getting very dry. Drinking a ton more water.

The photo is of some lake along the way that they must be using BLUE#4
on or something.

Camping tonight at a RV park. Tommorows ride has nothing at all as far
as civilization for 75 miles.

Next state.

69.6 miles today over some pretty good climbs. Camping just outside of
Dolores, CO. Rough place to camp, I ripped my tent a little. And the
holes are wearing out bigger. I think this will be the first and last
journey for my lil tent.
