Stats 
63.4 miles 5.54 mph average that is messed up I left the Garmin on for hours after I was done. I was going to get a good average today because of the lack of hills. But that's not what I got. 
1371.4 of up not that bad
I hope I got Peter's site or what ever you call it correct so we can put this puppy to bed finally
There was bike path for many miles. However the storms left a lot of debris on the path. Lots of pine ones acorns pine needles and leaves all of which can possibly cause a fall. Also standing water and many wooden bridges wet wood is also slippery. After while I liked the sound of acorns popping under my wheels. My tires are great. I had what I decided was to narrow tires. When I got to Adventure Cycling in Missoula I bought one tire. I had 28mm on front and 32 on the rear. I put the 32 on the front  and a 35 on the rear. The 32 made the whole trip and still has plenty it tread left. The 35 rod from Missoula on the rear still has much tread on it I had no flats. The tires of today are so improved. Forty years ago we carried spare tubes and a spare tire and plenty of patches and all were needed. My tires are Schwalbe a very tough touring tire. 
Well tomorrow we will all be done AMEN !
