Day 14 served up strong head winds to start along with almost 4,000 feet of vertical climbing and some spectacular views. A 10 mile decent was tappered by strong headwinds, so a normal 30-40 mph downhill ride was scaled back to 20-25 mph and had to peddel to get that. We rode most of the day through the stomping grounds of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Meet the great, great grand-daughter of a local that owned a store frequented by Butch Cassidy. Ended the ride with one of the best cheese burgers and choc. milk shakes I have ever had. Then dinner packed with pasta and cookies. Tomorrow Green River, UT!
