Day three started with breakfast sans eggs, bacon or chocolate. That's OK. We had a screamin' downhill ahead of us and a swim in Miremonte Reservoir in our future. With the disappointment of Day Two's 'road-ride', we decided to make up our own 'alternate ride' for the day. Suzanne and Kristin mapped out a single-track alternative using the topo. It was a risk that didn't pan out (see 'closed trail' photo) but was a fun, 6-mile detour and a highlight of the day.

Gorgeous scenery. |

| The water was cool and refreshing. |
| Kristin liked to show off her sandles to Emma who was traveling light and only brought her Sidi's. |
| Suzanne takes the lead into the headwind. The refreshment of the swim was short-lived but rewarded with a fast downhill. |
