  • They let me in to Canada. #
  • Even the immigration officers were asking me about #tourdivide #

  • I am stopping for a rest much earlier than anticipated. Rain, cold, and pushing my bike through snow on elk pass kicked my butt #tourdivide #

  • People in Montana are extremely nice. Even to strange bikers #tourdivide #
  • Yesterday was a day that I could write a book about. It ended with me shivering uncontrollably in US Customs and not completely lucid. #
