Montana
Well I haven't posted for a couple of days no internet, but I'm here in Miles City, MT now. I crossed into Montana on Wednesday I camped in Fairview, MT. I was able to sleep in their city park, it was really nice and quite I even had police drive by protection. I made it to Glendive, MT on Thursday getting into Glendive the elevation is starting to increase. On Friday I made it to Terry, MT I slept in the city park there. I really like sleeping in city parks its quite and the police know your there. Getting into Miles City was a lot of climbing and hot, no wind so that was nice. Its hard to keep motivated out there alone but, its getting better.

Good day off
Hey everybody today is may 27th I spent yesterday in Minot, ND with my aunt and uncle and cousins it was a nice break after that brutal wind. Then on top of having a day off, my uncle dropped me off about 100 miles west on his way to work totally awesome it is a huge chunck of flat, straight, boring road. I made it into williston, ND today around 1130 am take a little break at the always McDonalds. I am gonna try to make to Montana today its about 36 miles from here. There will be a few disc golf courses that I am gonna try to play in the next couple of days. Im gonna post a few pics, the pictures with sign and flash are my roadside treasures and then this morning I found an Ipod its broke but still fun. Well thats it I hope everyone is working hard and riding their bikes.

brutal head wind
Today started out pretty good as left this morning I saw a group of Native Americans who were doing a 250 mile walk for diabetes. They started asking me question as to what I was doing and they were excited for me and so they prayed and for safe travels and then burned rope incense to cleanse me it was pretty neat not an everyday event. As I headed north I was bucking a 2o mile head wind for 40 miles it was just brutal I was averaging 6 miles and hour for that 40 mile section. I finally made it Minot, ND were my aunt and uncle live it was great to have a steak dinner and shower after the 5o degree day.
