WF Road is real nice, but real cold. I was surprised how much faster it is to ride back towards R39 than it is to take the road to the dam!

Didn't eat before I left, so 50 miles later I felt terrible. I got what I wanted: more training in feeling crappy and having to push myself, and also that whole "hunger makes the best sauce" thing.

Shady the whole way... cold and wet.

Smallest one I've ever seen. Moved a few of these dudes outta the road as always.

The Dominator (tm) and a nice canyon...

...in said canyon. Hmmmm canyoneering potential!
