Day 21 (Wetmore to Sugar City)

(86.8mi,15.7mph,1766ft)
Katie had two flats at once on the way to Pueblo, so we stopped at a bike shop there for more patches. We rode easy all morning going downhill with a tailwind. We rode through a couple towns that no longer had services, but finally made it to Ordway around 1 after 80 miles and my first flat. It was 102 degrees when we pulled in, so we were ready for a break. We cooled off with ice cream and filled up our waters, expecting to push at least another 35 miles. When we arrived in Sugar City, we found a cafe with air conditioning and decided we'd had enough of the heat. We spent the afternoon in the cafe relaxing and working on some logic puzzles the owner gave us. She said we could camp in the city park, so we have another night of free camping. We officially finished the Western Express today, and I'm glad we took that route instead of the normal TransAm trail. We cut off about 500 miles and we got to see some awesome sights in the west. Should be in Kansas tomorrow.
