We stayed at Devils Tower tonight. It is a plug volcano that has all the dirt washed away from it. It is impressive. It is the most climbed rock in the US. Many of us walked around the base.

We stayed in a KOA and the owners made the dinner and breakfast. It was great. The main dish was buffalo. They finished it with all the ice cream you wanted.

8 peple left the ride here and 9 joined. They had one lady break her hip by not crossing rails at 90 deg.

The people are all very nice and have a lot of fun together.

The ride today was 75 miles and climbed 4178 ft and had a hard headwind. The longest climb was 2 miles at 8 percent.

The people we meet on the road are very nice and helpful.

The views were outstanding.

There was light traffic on all the roads.

It was great to get back with everyone. They are all looking out to make sure I am doing ok.

We are staying in Newcastle tonight and head to Custer to see Crazy horse. Mount Rushmore the next day.
