I woke up with plans to just ride tillc right before the sun went down. This was because there was nothing for the next 125 mi so I was going to be sleeping off the road some where. I was looking at the map when I woke up and realized I was going right by natural bridges national monument and there was a campground there.the way I figured it I'm not in a huge rush and if im going with in 4 mi of a national monument I should go check it out. I got packed up excited about my new plan. I went to put all my stuff on my bike and of course a good damn flat tire. So yet again I changed the tire. I've Ben taking my tiers on and off so much my breakers were all out of wack so I had to fix those as well. It was good I ended up going to the bridges cuz I never would have made it to my original destination with the amount of water I had. I drank probable double what I normally drink since it was so freaking hot out.I made it to the bridges around 2. I set up camp and then chilled till 4. At 4 I got back on my bike with no gear which was great and did the nine mi loop to see the natural bridges. they were pretty cool but not as cool as there arch we can ski through in Jackson. Do you know the difference between an arch and a bridge? Well let me enlighten you. An arch is free standing where a bridge connects two major masses. Bridges are almost always Made by water corroding the rock. I made a crappy dinner then hit the hay. Put up 50 for the day.
