I found a rock embedded in my tire this morning, so perhaps that's been the culprit? That makes flat tire #6. We made oatmeal in the hotel room and then got on way along Hwy 40 to get to Grand Lake. I wasn't feeling too hot from last night's dinner, and my stomach was in shambles, so we rode rather cautiously.
We rode into Sulphur Hot Springs and had a decent lunch at the Glory Hole Restaurant. We rode on and saw a beautiful fox cross the highway. The storm clouds were brewing again, and as we rode onto Hwy 34 from Granby into Rocky Mountain National Park, we had to pitch the rain fly so we weren't blasted down by giant lightning bolts. The weather around the Rocky Mountains amazes me. The storms build so quickly, and they're so intense. We hung out in the tent and played cards until it passed. We then rode on into Arapaho National Recreation Area and camped at Stillwater Campground right on Lake Granby.
