HC1200 Day 1

First puncture at mile 1. Second at mile 85. Fortunately I added sealant to both tires Saturday. Both sealed, but only 50-60#s in rear when I got to Rustic at mile 99. Roads wet at start, but weather was nice until near Cameron Pass. Rain stopped about 10 mi on west side. Nice quartering breeze to Walden. Tailwind most of the way to Saratoga. Hard rain, hail, lightning for a few miles before Riverside. Nice hotel in Saratoga and yummy homemade vegan lentil soup! Tomorrow is reportedly the “hard” stage.

Photos on Friday. Can’t seem to upload any from my phone.
