We cooked our oatmeal for breakfast in the microwave and got on the road at 7 am. The route was rolling hills with 2 steeper climbs, but the big distraction was the trucks on the road. Log trucks, cattle trucks, Ford trucks and RVs all blasted past us with not much room to spare. We ate lunch before the second climb and the sun really started beating down on us. We arrived in New Meadows around 2 pm, and Lenny insisted on staying in a motel again. We checked into the Hartland Inn, and had delicious chicken and beef brisket at Sagebrush BBQ in town. Tomorrow, we will get on the road at 5 am when the sun comes up, to escape the heat of the day and finish biking by early afternoon.
