| The theme
for today is: "climb we must"
Woke up at
5:30 to get ready to tackle Steven's pass. The pass was just over 4000 feet
and we were starting out in Skykomish at just over 1000. We had to climb 16 miles to make it.
Of course we all took photos at the top. It was slow going but the views
were breath taking. The back side was a blast. we fired down the other side.
To the lunch stop. With the amount of food that Cycle America feeds us, I
don't expect to lose any weight on the trip.
I stopped in the Bavarian town of
Leavenworth stopped at Starbucks for coffee. Met up with first two
other riders, Jim and Lauri Young for Iowa and then Tom and Neil rode up as
well.
I finally got
into the high school in East Wenatchee by 5PM and had just enough time to
catch a shower before dinner.
