This morning we had a beautiful moring sun was out. After a great breakfast from the gourmet cowboys and a 30 minutes ride with some 1960 school buses up a logging road top the start line at clear creek -felt like i was going rafting. 
Today was going to be another short stage, my partner and I agreed that towing would be best to tackle with 14k with a steep climb up to more than 4000m and then a long descent down to Twin Lakes on some sweet single track. The last 3ks were almost flat and crossing over creeks, that was definitely better than the first one. Click on the Video below to see the Start line
