The good news is our buddy Craig is back in the saddle! Not that he slacked off yesterday...riding 120+ of the 151 mile route. He hadn't really eaten anything for two days due to a stomach bug! He is one tough hombre! Craig, Chip and I rolled easy over to Rangely,CO today. PAC still had two (2) SAG's along the way...so we laughed each time we saw them and yelled out: "hey look boys....it's time to eat again!!". This was a 52 mile ride! Finished off with a picnic-style lunch in the park! Rangely is a really small oil town with a two block Main Street, consisting of liquer (5) and hardware stores and a Subway. There was a fresh peaches sign that caught my eye. I never knew Colorado was known for peaches! They were really good! Dinner choice tonight was one of two restaurants in town...Mexican (I don't think so) ...so we settled on Italian at Giovanni's. Actually, pretty good...and packed with locals.
Sorry this is so late. It seems these motels/hotels have some pretty narrow bandwidth on their i-access. When we all try to push photos and emails at the end of the day the system slows to a crawl and then , as it did tonight, just shuts down. I ran back from dinner to beat the "pixel rush hour"! Here ya go!

I figured it was time for me to brighten up the high desert! If you think the photos are looking too lonesome…I hope this helps!
It’s “Flower time” for my beautiful wife! I sure do miss you!
Craig…back in the saddle again! He put a hurtin’ on us in the City Limit sign sprint this morning. Good to have him back!
The gang makes it to Colorado!
“90”…he doesn’t look a day over 50 ¾!
for my horse lover!

Hmmmm? This could make a very interesting discussion.

DR, are you cultivating a little facial hair? Going for the John Baldwin look? Nice to see you in your Glory kit. What do others think of your "Death or Glory" motto? Thanks for more entertaining pix!
They have Giovanni's out there??? I'd be getting that stuff to go and take it with you...
Hi Dave,
Enjoying your trip memoirs. Also, enjoying Katie and "long-tall tongued' Jack at our Baldwin park evening walk-a-thons, aka "The Mama's and the Pa-Paws". Most dogs refuse to drink in the same bowl after Jack's done lapping up. :-)
You are such an example of how to smooze with the flowers and horse pics. Men, take note!
Are one of the guys wearing some low-cut women's heels instead of bike shoes? How does that tan happen? Looks like someone needs to invest in some 50+ Sport lotion.
Be safe.
Carol
