Seeley Lake to Lincoln

First things first - I had to figure out a way to slow down Rien! This should work...

And off we go... easy ride to lunch in the very cool town of Ovando. Check out the comfy beds in the local jail...

A big post-lunch climb up Huckleberry Pass, with some great views from near the top...

At the top, I ran into a guy on a motorcycle who literally lives 2 miles from my house. Crazy!

A swim in Reservoir Lake on the way down, then burgers, dogs and fries for dinner. I cleaned my bike, only to discover another broken spoke. When I ripped the wheel apart to fix it, I found that ALL the outer spokes in the freewheel side are damaged... looks like my chain jumped into the spokes at some point. So, I replaced the broken one and will have to travel tomorrow with all the tools I need to replace more if they break - an extra 5 pounds I really don't need.

Helena has a couple bike shops, so hoping to get a rebuild there on short notice. Fingers crossed as tomorrow is another burly day.

OK - off to the bar for a nightcap with some of the boys.
