Ryan and Ryan

July 27: Ryan and Ryan

One of the cool things about highway 50 has been its popularity with cyclists. Shopkeepers and townspeople expect to see people on bikes and go out of their way to help us and make sure that everyone knows where to camp, find some food, etc. I ran into Ryan and Ryan just inside Utah. They left Chicago a couple of months ago and are just a few weeks from finishing their trip to San Francisco. They were able to pass on some tips on getting through Utah, and I was able to tell them about highway fifty and what to expect in Nevada.

  • Very cool! I see they haven’t been sleeping in places with showers?
    P.S. I’m not fundraising for the Cool Breeze ride. Phew!

    haha, yeah, they had been riding pretty much straight through from Wyoming. We met up about 20 miles from the Border Cafe; they were about 110 miles into an all night ride. They were so happy to hear about cheap camping and hot showers at the border.
