Lee made the Aspen News

Lee had said he'd been interviewed as he came into Aspen on Day 5. I did find the article, but it really isn't about the ride or the fact that Lee is a really fit rider who's on his 3rd ride -- it's about the beers at the tavern on the way to Aspen:

I guess there is more than one type of "climb" on this trip. I'm not figuring out why all the podcast/gabcast episodes aren't showing in the reader at the right.

If you want to see or listen to the podcasts for this trip you can find them at this link:

PS. Right after I posted this, the episodes did show up in the reader! Go figure :)

Mobile showers



Once riders have completed the day's mileage, people want showers. Two types are generally available: the school gym showers (remember junior high?) and these trucks which have individual showers stalls within. What you see outside are sinks for tooth brushing, shaving, and (gasp)applying make-up or combing hair. Men and women's showers are separate, but the sinks are co-ed--shades of more recent dorm life.
