Day 5 Thursday, June 11th Truckee CA to Sparks NV 65 miles
My legs are sore and tired and today we have to make one of the biggest and longest climbs up to Mt. Rose, elevation of 9000 ft, highest passover in CA. I made it ! Pretty cold up there, saw some snow flurries. The ride down was extremely fast. Pretty scary when the cars and semi-trucks where trying to get around us. The views at the top were again spectacular as we viewed Lake Tahoe for the first time. I was relieved when I got to the bottom.

Sure wish Duff (father in law) was around so we could enjoy the mountain course.
