Death Valley - Here We Come

Well, for those who care, the weekend for my bike ride in Death Valley is coming up. We leave the day after tomorrow for Vegas and then shuttle 2 hours to Furnace Creek in Death Valley National Park, California. We start our ride about 6:45 a.m. on Saturday morning with a temp around 61 degrees. We finish with temp around 100. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! Salt intake is equally important so one does not get what is called hyponatremia, referred to as water intoxication.

Will give you update when I return next week. If you are one of those who contributed to JDRF to support my ride, a sincere thank you.
