Day 3 – June 3, 2011
Since we had such a late night on Day 2, Nels and Nick didn’t start riding until about 11AM. The boys left snowy mountainous Kirkwood, CA in 30 degrees at 8,000 feet in elevation. They rode through the beautiful scenic mountains in the beginning of their trip right through the Nevada border. As we got to Nevada, the temperature started warming up to about 60 degrees. Nick got his first flat tire of the trip about halfway through the ride. Nevada became a desert with heavy intense wind. Nels got a wind burn. There were several big hills that N & N climbed but definitely not as terrible as Day 2. We arrived in Fallon, Nevada after 114 miles of biking.
