| Event log: Today was actually much shorter than planned. We only did 54 miles today as we started from Heber instead of Show Low. It was a great day all around. Weather was clear and sunny and I wasn't as sore today. We climbed out of Heber for about 15 miles and then had a really fast down hill for 6 miles. My computer registered 48.6 mph today?. Discovered that it is better to pack most of the weight to the rear of the trailer or it gets a little squirly. We havn't been keeping up with our mishaps... a couple of days ago Dave's seat bolt loosened up on him, and almost fell off (the bolt that is). I broke a spoke yesterday, and had to do a field wheel truing.. We all have had at least one flat each. I don't think Mark's tires are going to last much longer. We have enough equipment to get him to Phoenix, but I think he is going to have to buy new ones before we head back. Oh, I did have an interesting incedent... You know those "Drunk Bumps" on the side of the road? I hit a short stretch yesterday at about 30 mph and had the little blinky light that was attached to the fender of my trailer break off and bounce over my head... guess I will be buying a new one when he find a bike shop.
