DAY 6 - Two in one

Woke to the sound of rain at 6.15am so Scott jumped up and took in the clothes we had out drying on the line and put up the tarp to cook breakfast and get organised under.
After our fastest (again) pack up we hit the road at 8.10. The blokes from Florida were up but the others were still tucked up.
We made awesome time along the downhill section covering 20km in an hour. It rained the whole way but was not cold. We stopped for a couple of snacks along the way. Man you sure do get hungry just riding along.
We meet three cyclists heading the other way so had a chat to them. Turns out one of them had done the race along the route that happened in June, finished 5th equal and was now just doing a weeks tour with friends. Jo thought that was a bit freaky!!
We turned uphill not long after that and again starting riding uphill for another 20km. Again it went on and on. Eventually we got to the top at Red Meadow Lake.
This should have been our nights destination but we wanted to push on to Whitefish to have a rest day.
After the lake we headed down in the rain for 20km then an pretty flat/undulating ride into Whitefish. Even found a car wash on the way into town to wash the mud off our bikes.
Found a campsite with a laundry. Did laundry, showered, had pizza (thought Simon P was there too as his car was???) for tea and crashed!!

DISTANCE: 100.1 km
AVERAGE: 16.3 kmh
RIDE TIME: 6.08
ASCEND: 865m

Both looking forward to rest day tomorrow.
