A day of rest started with sleeping late, until 7:30, a leisurely breakfast, a massage, a dip in the cold river, a load of laundry, a nap and a dinner in Casper at a Vietnamese restaurant. Not much is going on in Casper, WY a city that thinks of itself as a big deal, although it is about the size of Pittsfield. The biggest building in town is the Dick Chaney federal building. I think that about says it all about Casper.

Since there was nothing of much interest in Casper I show some pictres below from the past 2 days which I collected today from some other riders .

Survival into the headwind yesterday. Charlie in the front, I am the 3rd rider.

Me qnd Charlie on our breakaway yesterday.

Big Charlie Ainslee the Australian and me on working together

This is me riding with Oliver a German policeman and Ray from London, cowboy style as guests of the Wyoming DOT

Someone asked how the non shaving monk look was coming.
Tomorrow we are back at it with another century (106 miles) with a fair amount of climbing over to Lusk, WY. The wind direction will be the big question on how hard a day it will be. We get up at 5:30 and leave at sunrise at about 5:45.
