Carl and I rode a shift early this morning from 1 AM to 6 AM crossing the last 80 miles of Colorado and taking us to the Kansas border. There was no moon last night and the sky was clear so the stars were an amazing site.
We have settled into a new riding pattern now that we have successfully conquered the Rockies. We have 4 teams of 2 riders, Mark & Isaac, Steve & Kelly, Daniel & Michael, and Carl and me. Each team takes a 5 hours shift of riding, so there is 15 hours of rest between shifts. Depending on the wind and conditions, each shift is covering between 75 to 90 miles.
We feel we are pretty much on pace for 10 days to arrive in NYC, but it is very hard to tell. We won't really get a good idea until we reach Ohio
