​Caramel Pig

Stage 3.1

New Meadows, Idaho – Missoula, Montana

264.53 Miles – 423.24 Kilometres 

Total distance ridden 1046.02 Miles – 1675.23 Kilometres 


Relatively tired, we rode on and bumped into the equally tired-looking town of White Bird. There was a scuzzy town park there, it was all we had so we settled on spending the night. Sharon wandered across the road to buy a beer and chips to celebrate my birthday again. The bar lady kindly suggested that we camp closer to the pub. It scared me a little that she would suggest this. Sharon went for a wee walk up the road and I recorded a video message for a friend in Lithuania. Whilst I was doing this, someone shouted out their window at me, “f- off bum”, wow what a compliment. I kind of liked being called a bum, however the whole tired town was beginning to look stunningly unsafe and dodgy.
