Final big hurdle of the trip. Up and over the Sierra Nevada through Yosemite national park!

3 near death experiences in the park, one involving a coach that came within inches of us, the next, a car skidding on dirt while trying to overtake and nearly crashing into us and the third my only fall of the trip after a car flicked up a rock and knocked me off my bike!

Apart from that and the crowds Yosemite was absolutely stunning!

Heading out of the rockies! Two punctures on the same tire (later realised it was a fault with the new rim)

Then a day off to explore Colorado’s national monument which was incredible! A little taster of what was yet to come in Utah!

Crossing the rockies was definitely a highlight. A lot of big climbs but the views were worth it!

The great Continental Divide! The highest point of our trip and first time seeing snow since Ohio. Hopefully we don’t get anymore…

6 hours of uphill (5000 ft gain in elevation) then a 2 hour amazing decent into Guinisson. Into a motel at 8:30pm. Our latest finish yet!

Just us and the prairies (and the odd cow)

Cycling through this landscape has been incredible and makes you realise how vast this country is. After over a week of not seeing anything on the horizon we have finally caught our first glimpse of the Rockies! Let the climbing begin!
