Day 14.... Williston, ND to Wolf Point, Montana...100 miles.
Original plan was to ride about 45 miles to Culbertson, MT but big tailwinds push us another 55 miles. Besides there is going to be a wind shift tomorrow so might as well make hay while we can.
We left ND behind after the first 18 miles. Eastern Montana seems dryer with less wheat fields but otherwise about the same. We know this is Indian Country because of all the casinos [Bill tried to get me to play the dollar slot but wouldn't give me a buck to play].
A hard 75 yesterday and the century today [6.5 hours of pedaling today not including breaks] both days with lots of climbing have us a little tired but old guys still rule.
It's about 500 mikes to Missoula and tomorrow we'll go over the 1000 mile mark. Looking foreward to meeting up with Ruth and Tom tomorrow.
