43 miles- Bannack State Park America to Wisdom U.S.A.
Today the sky was blue and the winds calm. A great day to ride across America.
We were treated to a delicious breakfast by the Jackson's and shuttled from the campground back to the route. We climbed another pass, this time with ease, and descended into the Big Hole Valley. Very beautiful.
We stopped in Jackson for lunch. I had a burger and a Bud, a American meal if I have ever had one. Before we got back on the saddle we relaxed a bit in the hot spring fed pool. It felt great.
We crushed the last 18 miles to Wisdom, only to find a swarm of evil blood sucking insects waiting for us. We opted for a break from the bites and checked in at the Nez Perce Motel. Very reasonably priced and quite nice.
We met a very drunk British cyclist by the name of Colin. He and the other gentlemen in the bar had been celebrating a bit too much. One guy there sounded just like John Wayne...if John Wayne was drunk and yelling. Another guy there in his mind fifties, kept calling John "Bro". Strange.
Happy 4th yall!
