We all rolled out of Salida at various times this morning. Josh and Jenny caught up to me during my lunch break. We then headed up the remaining 3,000 feet over Marshall Pass. Our paces were pretty similar; it was quite a treat to have others around, especially as it began storming. It rained hard for a little bit and hailed for a littler bit. With company, the storms aren\u2019t as<\/em> bad. I even broke out the GoPro camera and recorded some video. Josh also got a cool slo-mo video of me mounting the unicycle precariously close to a steep drop. Tre had taken a more direct and difficult accent up the pass. His ride came with stories of sliding head first, on his back down one of these steep side slopes. A tree stopped his descent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re all in a beautiful campsite of aspen and pine tonight. We arrived at camp early (for me) and had lots of time to chat, eat, and even make a fire, a luxury I haven\u2019t enjoyed since before Whitefish, MT. Tonight reminded me of being on the Appalachian Trail, and it has been one of my favorite nights\/days of the ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tonight was also the perfect night to sip on my Teeccino<\/a>. After dinner, I like to reflect on the day with a cup of the herbal coffee that Teeccino has supplied for the trip. This is often my favorite; most looked forward to part of the day. This evening, I not only shared the reflection with others, but I also shared my favorite drink!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
