Day 6: From Spokane to South Point, Idaho: 77 miles

After a full day of rest, we headed off to Idaho which has been surprisingly more gorgeous than I thought. Took our time with the ride and stopped to pet some alpacas, see a local parade, spotted some bald eagles, and check out some great viewpoints. Definitely need to slow my pace because meeting the locals and experiencing the culture of the small places we see is pretty awesome. We had dinner in South point on the River front and sweet talked our way into a gelato place for dessert even though it had closed 15 minutes before we got there (but we're cyclists riding across America for charity::puppy eyes::). Enjoy the pics and keep the comments and support coming, we appreciate all of it. Big shout out to James Lynn, a Big Ride alumn rider, for sending us Tide, headlamps, batteries, and the all important Skittles. Also thanks to Kind bars for sponsoring us although I probably will never eat your product again but the amount I consume in the next 6 weeks should suffice.
