We rode from Fallon to Austin, Nevada today. It was definitely one of the hardest rides of my life - I'd put it the same league as climbing Kirkwood. We covered 113 miles in over eight hours. But what made it really challenging was that we rode through three or four mountain passes climbing about 2700 feet in elevation with the largest climb starting at mile 104 and getting progressively steeper all the way to the end.
Afterwards we were fortune to receive dinner from Beta Sigma Phi, a ladies' service fraternity. They made Thanksgiving dinner with turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, and gravy. Plus they had brownies and strawberry shortcake with real, homemade whipped cream. Delicious.
