Our ride today was short and sweet as we received a tweet from BUS4MS in the morning that we were staying in a hotel after a 49 mile bike ride! The ride today had two minor climbs that we breezed through only to continue on flat land for the remainder of the ride. This definitely allowed us to maintain a high average speed and cruise to Fallon quickly.
Along the way we got into some government run areas including B-17 training grounds and other army bases. Below is an image of the signs surrounding the area and an attempt at capturing a B-17 flying above us. This is one of probably 6-8 planes that buzzed over us as we approached Fallon and their training grounds.
We arrived in Fallon at 10:30 am! This was super early and the best part was that we could hit our hotel room asap and enjoy a shower, leftover continental breakfast at the hotel, and some TV before heading out to pick up Dominoes for pizza lunch in the hotel room and to the Safeway grocery store for drinks/snacks!
Tonight we are having a sweet celebration for Seth Milam's 23rd birthday and are throwing in a bit more celebration for Leigh Graziano's birthday which was on the 18th of this month. Up to this blog entry, I know that we are nailing some sweet Chinese food for dinner, but I don't know what else is planned for the evening!
