Arizona and the Four Corners
The ride out of Farmington was very exciting. We knew that it would be a long day due largely to the fact that we were facing another century ride but everyone was excited none the less. We crossed another state line!!!! Hello Arizona :) Goodbye New Mexico :( Landscape gets more and more beautiful everyday. The ride was going really well today so Tiff and I decided to take the 10 mile detour to see the four corners. this has been on my to do list for quite some time and we were so close anyways!!! The four corners was a lot of fun. We took some group pictures and hung out for a while before heading back out. The second half of the day was just as beautiful as the first but we could see the rain clouds approaching. Tiff and I just kept pedaling and pedaling. I got some really awesome pictures of the rain and landscape. This was definitely a very challenging ride but together we climb and descended. When we arrived at the host and looked at our odometers we realized that we had done a grueling 117 miles!!! Holy Crap. I never thought that I would ride 117 miles on my bike in one day but I did. This whole experience is so surreal!!! I find myself thinking "If I can ride my bike 117 miles through Arizona in July I can do just about anything."
