Instructions: Leave the camp site, turn left and there you will find your first hill of the day -No Mercy.
!Share the Road!
Maryland here we are (fourth state in our route). Beautiful day, but very windy, what made it a very challenging day. But the positive spirit and, I bet all the training too, helped me make every single hill on my bike, pedal after pedal, not one foot on the floor.
We hade been told that the last challenging hill was just a couple of miles before our destination, so here we are, a couple of miles just before our destination, making any excuse to delay facing that final hill. After 40 minutes relaxing on this spot, we went for it, and we did it! Our reward, no more camping, a hotel instead. Can you believe? a room for yourself (well we share it with Mariasol), a bed for yoursel (I did not share it with anyone), and best of all, dry towels (my towel was still soaking wet from the first night), and even better, the place was fully organic, growing lots of what they served.
That night the presentations included a speech by the Danish Ambassador, who join us in the last two days of the ride. Do you see me? I am seated, second from left to right. It was followed by the presentation by a bicyle culture consultant "Copenhagenize Consulting"(as you can see you can always find your niche!), and let me tell you that I loved that presentation. If you want to promote the use of bicycles were you live or anywhere else, please consider consulting with him. 
And finally, I was able to enjoy a glass of red wine during our last night while we were again delighted by the Salt Lake Licks beside a camp-fire.
