DAY 12 JUNE 23 (SAT) STEAMBOAT SPRINGS, CO

Today is 4th of July–long way to catch up on our adventure.  Trouble sleeping-tents next to us stayed up late & were noisy.  Still cold-7:00 put on biking clothes against my will-eat big donuts & chocolate milk at Space Station to help motivate me.  Today doing 20 m rd–not much wind-hills are steep.  Get to open range w/cows beside rd-get off bike to talk to them-tell A to go ahead-I’ll mosey along sometime.  Waiting for me on top of hill–nice downhill ahead.  Great long-long downhill-which means!!!!!!  Tell him not going farther on 20 m rd (did 10 m) because I of HAIR appt at 1:00! Uphill slow-start walking-finally get to top–start flying down–OH-OH-up ahead a COW is in my lane looking at me–stop in front of him–doesn’t move-take his picture–now here comes his brother to join him.  Have to go between them–can’t be late for hair app.  Thoroughly enjoy getting hair cut & colored while Armand does the wash.  Eat (burritos) & go to movie–SNOW WHITE-liked it.  Back to tent–last night in Steamboat.  Bike Tour CO (7 days-470 m) is over.  They biked to Laramie & had to be bussed to Ft. Collins because of the fires & smoke.  What a tour!!!  We pd $600 for 1 day (44 m) of the worst biking day ever–did camp out w/them 4 days.  We took 3 side trips for 122 m/played golf/went to rodeo & saw 2 movies–Enjoyed our BTC a lot more.  Still have BTMontana.  Have great pictures that someday may be posted at the end.
