Idaho Falls

Sunday July 3rd, Pocatello ID to Idaho Falls ID, 66 miles, 700 feet of climbing

Today was another fast ride with mostly tailwinds (I'll take them every time I can).  The ride was mainly on back roads with again sometimes rough surfaces.  Very little climbing.  We started a little later than normal given the relatively short distance.  It did heat up a bit towards the end but all in all some good conditions.  We stayed at another Best Western- we are a long streak of of BWs at present. Idaho Falls lies right on the Snake River.

Tomorrow promises to be a long hard ride into Jackson WY on the Fourth of July.  It sets up to be possibly the most difficult ride of the tour with a some very steep climbs in the Tetons.
