I traveled about 80.8 miles today.
Transcribed from notebook, July 6: Woke up to beautiful sunrise at medicine rocks park, on road by 6am. Met Dean in Baker - filled water and offered to connect me with his friends across Montana. Huge victory, incredible guy. Slow leak in tire, ran it to Wilbaux. Swapped tube in Wilbaux and add tire boot where rear tire had minute gash, not sure from what. Started biking interstate to Glendive, big clouds and rain looming ahead. Fellow named Ty pulled over and offered a ride. Said there was a big hail and thunder storm over Glendive headed my way. Gratefully accepted and cruised into Glendive just as hail started getting really bad. Glad Ty offered a ride, would have been an unhappy camper. Checked email at library, met up with Mutt at her office, then to her home. Great dinner with her and guest family from Marshall island. Drove through badlands formations on way to grocery store. Stopped to talk with older couple Pete and Karen tandem touring the four corners of the United States and also to Alaska, now heading back to New Hampshire. Cool folk. Have some options for places to stay tomorrow, though none solid.
