28 miles (45 km) – Total so far: 314 miles (505 km)
I awoke at Kirk Creek early. My schedule has shifted to coincide with the sun since I started this ride. I wake when it rises, and I go to sleep when it sets. It feels very natural to me, and I sleep really well.

42 miles (68 km) – Total so far: 286 miles (460 km)
So the day has finally come. Once again I need to leave behind my beautiful wife. No more fabulous hotels and wonderful meals. No more laughing and sharing our lives together.
Once again it’s time for me to ride off on my own. I admit that this morning I was having many second thoughts. “I could just stay with her, right?”. “No need to do this crazy solo ride”.
