Dude! Thats outstanding ! Weekend adventures like that when your single are the best. And to have a girlfriend who understands your obsessions? Priceless.

Oh by the way. You did better than she did.:banghead:

Me, I've been married 25 years. I think I"ll go by myself.?

PS Great idea on the frozen steak. I"m going to have to try that one.

When I took the steak out of my pack it was not so cold anymore. But I was hungry and thought of the old saying 4hrs at room temp = no good any more to eat. I ate it lt tasted good. I was fine. She was fine. Maybe more ice in my reservoir will fix the problem, OR BIGGER STEAKS.

I dig it. You are a lucky guy to have a girl that would ride you. If my "ol' lady" went with me, I'd have to purposly endo off a cliff... lol Here in Idaho, we usually do about 90 to 120 miles a day. But we have a base camp to call home. You 2 are awesome!?
