Conquering Old Foes

The second half of the day was better than the first. The first order of business was re-visiting the section of road where Danny fell last year, and defeating it. After that confidence boost (and after the bacon cheeseburgers digested a bit) we cruised over the dirt with relative ease and enjoyment. And it was glorious.

We came to the spot at which we previously bailed from the TAT roads. But we turned left instead of right this time, and it turned out to be the best part of our ride.

After this we discovered that riding hundreds of miles of dirt backroads in a single day can exhaust the human body. But that was nothing that a campfire and chili-cheese-wursts couldn't solve.
