Day 8, March 13: Wickenberg to Phoenix, AZ

SAG driver; 0 of 67 miles

The first 40 miles today were through typical Arizona desert and featured a long downhill into northwest metropolitan Phoenix. The final 27 miles covered suburban, populated areas.

The weather was perfect—not as cool in the morning and not as warm in the afternoon as recent days. My job as a SAG driver was easier on this second rotation as riders have found companions of like riding habits and I can more reasonably predict when to expect them at the appointed rest stops.
