FINAL FIGURES AND THOUGHTS

Well first of all about the weather. Out of our entire trip I needed my rain jacket for rain for exactly 1 hour. That's it. How amazing is that.

Here are the final daily mileages and totals:
October 15th: to Waynesboro: 17 miles, 42-60 degrees, 2293 feet of climbing.
16th: to Charlotsville: 26 miles, 50-65 degrees, 1450 feet.
17th: to Mineral: 48 miles, 48-70 degrees, 2166 feet.
18th to Ashland: 49 miles, 50-70 degrees, 1443 feet.
19th to Chickohomeny River: 55 miles, 57-72 degrees, 1283 feet.
20th to Yorktown: 33 miles, 57-59 degrees, 643 feet.

3564 Miles riding. 163,210 feet of climbing. Highest Temperature 102-Milford Utah. Coldest Temperature 41 Gunnison Colorado. Highest Elevation 11,333 Monarch Pass. Most Climbing in one day: 1st Escalante to Torrey 6220 feet in 64 miles, 2nd: Powers to Glendale, Or 5646 feet in 72 miles.

Mom and I were talking about our memories: Andreas, El Dorado Lake (the boat ride), White Canyon in Utah, the dirtiest campground in Kansas and so many more. This has been the trip of a lifetime for all of us.

Hoping anyone who has a dream can have the chance to go take it and enjoy the ride!!!
