Day 19 – Tuesday, May 25

63.3 miles, 20.6 mph, Odometer: 1291 – Glendive, MT to Medora, MT

KEVIN – The payoff. Today the wind was 20 mph from the west and I was riding east. I was concerned that my maps had me riding on I-94 for several miles before turning to less traveled roads. However, I-94 has a big, clean shoulder and minimal traffic. When it came time to turn off the interstate, I thought “why?” I stayed on I-94 for 37 miles. My maps said today’s ride would be 81 miles. I chose the straight line instead.

SUZI – Makoshika State Park is just outside of Glendive, MT. This morning I rode my bike to and through the state park, stopped for some photos, and hiked a short trail to see a dinosaur fossil. “The park’s landscape is part of the late Cretaceous Hell Creek Formation. Over ten different dinosaur species have been discovered in Makoshika. Significant discoveries include a complete Triceratops horridus skull, the fossil remains of Edmontosaurus and Tyrannosaurus rex, and a nearly complete skeleton of the rare Thescelosaur.” https://fwp.mt.gov/stateparks/makoshika So that was actually awesome.

And just for Andy…
