110 miles in 9.66 hours \u2013 Max Speed 43mph<\/strong><\/p>\n

I set out early because I knew that I had a big day in front of me if I wanted to make it to my final destination around 40 miles into Wyoming. I apparently set out too early because I realized a ways down the road that I did not fill my water bottles up \u2013 not smart. Luckily I saw a little college on the side of the road, so I rode up there, and their student union type building was unlocked so I filled up my bottles there.<\/p>\n

\"Thanks<\/a>

Thanks random small college!<\/p><\/div>\n

A river in Utah<\/p><\/div>\n

After taking care of that I got back on the road, which quickly became a highway \u2013 but a highway that I could be on. I still got off of it whenever there was a good frontage road, but I was happy to be back on the highway.<\/p>\n

\"Oh<\/a>

Oh yeah, there was also a big climb out of Heber, and I thought this green sign would be a sign for the summit as it had been so many times before. Well it was really at the summit, and it was a Summit, but not what I was looking for. Good timing for that county though.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"A<\/a>

A frontage road I took... 'Old Route 40'. Anytime there is a route you want to follow and a road has the same name, only with the word 'old' prepended to it, that means it goes the same place but has no traffic.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"I<\/a>

I only took this picture because I liked how one side was all green and the other was red... it is like a video game. Like going from Ashenvale to Durotar... right? Right?? You're better off if you don't know what I am talking about there.<\/p><\/div>\n
