Biking the 'Rocky Mountains'

Judging by the view in the background, this was a grueling day.


I think Derrick is trying to be as much of a man as Daniel Boone.

When a biker asks to exchange the Fredericksburg hill for the one that he's biking, you know he's got a pretty serious hill. Word around Valley View has it that that's what Brent was asking for this morning. Here's Derrick's take on Day 5. "We fought through what seemed like the Rocky Mountains this morning, then we caught a good wind and cruised into Williamsburg, Kentucky for the night."

They blasted through 92 miles today. Congrats on being ahead of schedule again! Best of luck to you tomorrow.
