Bike America with Mike: Day 10 (June 29th) - Boise to Mountain Home (53 miles)

Day 10 (June 29th) - Boise to Mountain Home (53 miles)

Today is a short ride to Mountain Home, Idaho after a welcome day off (Day 9) in Boise. We spent rest day cleaning our bikes, picking up a few supplies at George's Bike Store in Boise, a mid-day massage and getting some rest. I also got a welcome package of supplies from Lauren. So nice to see something from home. I think we are all a little homesick at this point.

So far we have cycled 644 of the 3700 mile course, about 1/6 of the total. Today starts the second leg of our journey. We will be in Idaho until the 4th of July when we roar into Jackson Hole, Wyoming after our longest day of climbing Teton Pass. We are all looking forward to seeing the Grand Tetons.

That's later. For now, we are enroute to Mountain Home. More at the end of today's ride.......

Mike, I'm getting addicted to your blog. It's kind of like watching the Tour de France. I can't wait to hear the news! Thanks for taking us along!
Much love, your Sis
