Day 4- From the riders

Continuing the blog from the point where I fly home to recover and the boys continue on. These entries are edited to enhance Hunter's "concise" narrative style. While I recover in the Lift Tower, Bill and Alan clean their bikes and get massages. Bubba elects to not clean his bike, since he hasn't used it yet, so he and Jorge decide to hike the 4.5 mile Bald Mountain trail which climbs 3,400 feet to the top of 9,150 Bald Mountain. They opt to take the chair lift down to save what's left of their knees.


While Bill is cleaning his bike, he discovers a chain link that is broken on one side, so rides into town to get it fixed. Also, he sees a doctor and gets an x-ray of his arm, since he had run in to a cross rail on the way into Ketchum and is experiencing sharp pain with some movements of his left arm. Everything looks okay. He may have hit the rail after seeing this moose sighted on the way into Ketchum:


After coming to no agreement on dinner, Jorge and Bubba head into town for Mexican and Alan, Bill and I have pizza delivered.
