Well after a rest day of just 48 miles I am camping next to the lake before the next big climb tomorrow. I've been swimming in the lake which is stunning. It's a shame I can't share all this. I've met a dutch cyclist here who is riding east coast to west coast so he's been telling me what to expect as I go east. Apparently its cool to sleep in chur he's on Kentucky and Yellowstone has climbs of over 9000 ft! Also there is an American cyclist called Larry who has a beard and is riding to the west coast then back to the east coast agaiin along the northern tier..nutter but how cool is that..I may meet him tomorrow!This lake is beautiful...
