Transrockies Day 5

Day 5 Whiteswan to Elkford 88.5km 2147m of climbing

A very cool start today weather-wise. A nice bonus at the starting gate is that Niall is going to give it a go. Jim is riding with us as well, just in case. Had my sleeveless jersey, it was about 8C, I got some comments of course.

Felt good off the line, fast pace, got to the first checkpoint quickly. Waited for Jim, he told me to go ahead and try to chase down Niall. I had a good day, nothing too special to report. My but is starting to get sore. The rock gardens were awesome, had some fun riding those. Got in just under 7 hours. I'm very tired.
