Day 8 Sunday, June14 Winnemucca NV to Battle Mountain NV 55 miles
Today a group of us strayed off course to go see the high school rodeo championships. Great time! Saw bucking horses throwing their riders and the lassoo competition where they ride chasing a small calf then lassoo the calf dismount, flip him and tie his legs. One kid did it in 10 seconds. My plan on the ride was to take it easy and rest for tomorrows ride, however; with a 4 mile climb, headwind, and riding 5 miles on a bumpy grooved road getting ready to be repaved I am tired and shaking from the vibration.
Tonights meal was mexican and very good. The pictures above are from the rodeo and ride today.

Chuck this is sooooo cool! Have you been training like crazy. Can those older people keep up with you?
ReplyDeleteOh no! I hope you didn't get any new ideas. Next summer: Chuck Rodeo's America.
