First 300 Miles In The Books
He made 300 miles in 24 hours. It's pretty amazing and he's pumped. He's been steadily increasing his overall average miles per hour from a dismal 8mph to 12.3, 12.5, 12.8. So we feel pretty confident he'll be able to keep up this pace. As in previous years, I've felt the top of the Yarnell grade is a good place to stop, so we got two motel rooms, showered, slept, and cooked a meal (Chicken Parmesan - greatly simplified and altered for a RAAM rider). Stephen will eat, shower, massage, and take his first sleep break. There's nothing between here and Prescott, but Prescott is a relatively large city, we'll be able to get any supplies we need.
