Sarah and Lena, who had started from Virginia six weeks earlier and had gone 3000 miles. They were camping most of the way, including in Yellowstone.  Bear country and no bear spray and camping with their food.  They had camped in a campground last night that wasn't open yet.

Daily: 34 miles. Total: 1100.7. Arrived a day early, so we took a room at the Snow Lodge for 2 nights. Met 2 ladies cycling from Virginia (3000 miles in 2 months). We saw several groups of bison near the road, but one came out of no where to cross the road right by Terry. He sped up and very quickly cycled away.
