Day 40

Start: Steamboat Springs, CO
End: Maybell, CO
Distance today: 70.6
Total: 2602.4

Two words to describe last night and this morning: wet and cold... It rained through much of the night and much of the morning, but luckily tapered off after lunch. Otherwise a pretty uneventful ride along the Yampa river.

Found a neat little hotel in Maybell. Built in 1894 as a hunting lodge, it still has lots of fun animal heads hanging on the wall (see picture for one that actually kind of creeps me out a little)

Also met a couple in a nice RV who have been stalking us the past few days... Just kidding! But they did stay at the same campsite last night, and have apparently passed us on the road repeatedly the past few days. Turns out they are big cycling enthusiasts who were more than happy to share some company and some wine! Thanks Anita and Bob!

Anyways, it's about 9 and past our bedtime... So goodnight! If everything goes smoothly tomorrow, this should be our last night in Colorado!
