Riding home from ES I stopped for a little self spoiling and a nice Rib Eye

They no longer offer this guy on their menu.

This tire came apart right in front of me. I couldn't believe the millions of little pieces that sprayed all over me while the whole outer tread rolled right past the front of my bike.

I wish I knew how to capture the beauty of this scene with a camera. It just doesn't do it justice.

Long waits while they trim the trees

A fun milestone on my 1 1/2 year old bike. 13,450 miles on this two month trip.
