Bike Trip 03 -- Day 2

  • Miles: 65.42
  • Ride time: 6:35
  • 10.x average mph
  • Highlights: gruelling trip through the Yakima Firing Range: a 20 mile stretch through the deep-sanded and sharp-rocked desert. I had 4 flat tires and a busted spoke, which we replaced with pure brute force. Bob fell over at least 8 times trying to navigate through the deep sand with his narrow tires and handle bars, so that scratched him up pretty good. It took us about 4 hours to get through this 20 mile stretch. Afterwards we took a dip in the Columbia and enjoyed the 4th of July under a beautiful clear sky with a spectacular display of stars.
