Day Nine - Rest Day Golden

Today was a rest day which was good because I was feeling very fatigued. I slept in till 8 so I got 9 hours sleep but probably could hsve used more. 

Because this is a rest day we were on our own for breakfast. Some early risers went into town while most of use are at the truck. 

Around 10 quite a few of us headed to the bike shop to get service. I needed to have my redailures adjusted and get a quick link installed on my bike. JP (pic below with dreds) from Derailed Sports help us very quickly.  

We had lunch downtown at Whitetooth Mountain Bistro and headed out to do some white water rafting. Pic below in red is Nice from Peru he was our rafting guide. 

I had never been rafting before and even though it was great fun I should have just rested my legs. 

We are now on mountain time and it's late and I will be getting up early to get an early start on that crazy hill that is leaving town. 

Nice, our rafting guide

JP fixed 5 of our bicycles very fast
