Day 23 comments

The Cafe in Hartsel opened at 6, I was packed and ready at 6:20 and went for breakfast (bacon, ham,sausage and 4 slices of bread and jam)

Day started off poorly with me pushing a lot. Had some headwinds. One I started down the pass to Salida things improved (they usually do with a 15km downhill!)

Met a lady just outside Salida taking photos of the riders. Skipped Salida and resupplied in Poncha Springs. Started up marshal pass and camped out just over 3000m. Was surprised that I could ride up the whole pass

Slept poorly until 2am and solidly until 6Baca lagi
