Day 8 Eureka MT to Whitefish MT







One more incredible day for the books. Western Montana really knows how to do weather. After a good nights rest at the Ksanka Motel, the THF team headed south down Tobacco Valley Road, a quiet road that eased them in to the day of pedaling. Knowing they had a short day ahead, Dick put the hammer down with Bill in tow, keeping up a good clip for the duration of the pedal south in the Flathead Valley. An early arrival to Sasha and Christine's home just north of Whitefish is just what the leg and bum doctor ordered. Afternoon was spent running errands in town, bike maintenance, doing laundry and resting as much as possible. Big thanks to Christine for the perfect dinner and hospitality to match, plus an introduction to Prince and a peak at Sasha's extensive motorcycle collection; the cyclist had a bit of envy for the self propelled cycles.
News flash: We recieved word from Kyle McClellan of The Western News that the riders will be gracing the pages this Wednesday, be sure to take a look www.thewesternnews.com
