A hearty breakfast at Spearfish's Secret Garden B&B enabled our merry band of bicyclists to leisurely pedal 31 miles to Sundance, WY, arriving shortly before noon yesterday. More sustenance preceded the 30 mile and 3000'+ grind up to Devils Tower amid blue skies framed by semi-lenticular clouds. Ice cream at the DT Trading Post topped off our tanks for the final 3 mile, 350' climb to the Devils Tower Lodge.
A layover day today allows exploration of the Tower and recovery for the legs before our last day of the tour Friday takes us back to Beulah, WY via Hulett, WY and over Bear Lodge Mountain Pass -- a bonafide 2 mile 8 percenter.
