Day 24 - 54.7 miles. Marathon TX

Happiness is a tailwind and downhill ride!  We did the 54 mile ride in four hours total, averaging over 15 mph.  It was a real treat to go fast for a change, and really feel like we were moving.  On top of all that, the scenery was magnificent - grasslands with mountains in the background.  Now we are relaxing in our camp. It is still windy, but we put the tents up on a fairly sheltered pavilion, and life is good!  - Sue
