Day 16 Baker, NV to Delta, UT with mexican food and car washes

So today was another typical 5:30 wake up and we got everything out of the place we were staying at and had a wonderful banana and bagel breakfast.

Today was kinda sucky because it was a 96 mile day but our PM decided that we need more century rides so he put it to a vote the night before to add 4 miles to the route so that it would be over 100 and the yays won so we had an over a 100 mile day today.

Today was really just long and boring.  We started out having a few hills to climb and then a nice decent that you can see in the video below and then after that it was pretty much flat for the remaining 80 miles with about 40-50 of that being one straight road.

We saw some desert and some salt flats but not much else.  The road was really rough and bumpy but after about 9 hours we finally got to Delta, UT

We arrived and got showered and changed and then headed out to get a team dinner at a local mexican place called Zapata's.  They had really good food and really cheap food. We stuffed ourselves there and then went to the car wash to wash the team vans. That was fun and you can see that in the video as well.

After that I came back to the lodging and started working on the videos and blogs for the past few days along with having a safety meeting and now after I finish this going to bed:)

I hope you all had a great day and I will talk to you tomorrow.


Peace, Love, and Salts
