Woke up at 7, on the trail by 8. Katie's rack was broken sometime during day 1, so we stopped in Folsom for breakfast and a new rack. I upgraded my gloves. First 20 miles to Folsom were easy, then we started climbing. We took a wrong turn and ended up in diamond springs instead of Placerville, and went up bucks bar road to Somerset. The last 2 miles on bucks bar road were very steep. I am not sure about how the rest of the trip will go with my double crank (46/38). We stopped in Somerset for some hot dogs and met murph and ginger who invited us to stay on their property just beyond Fairplay, CA. Probably climbed 3500ft in total elevation. Very tired.
