2016 TransAm/Western Express Day 55 - Austin, NV
There are definitely things that I like about Nevada, no question about it. The air is clean and crisp. The people have been nice to us (when you can find one). But today was the first day, in a long time, when Cranky Adam came out. To be clear: I mean Cranky-While-Bicycling Adam. I'm definitely cranky in general, but not usually on the bike. But today got to me. If ever there was a day when I might have gotten in the van, it would have been today. I'm not even sure why; it wasn't a particularly hard day. The first 40 miles I rode with Kip and Bryn and they flew by. But the last climb into Austin crushed my soul.
