Heading Home

/ ridingwithgary

On Day Fifteen, we begin the journey home. Leaving Rapid City for the last time, we ride south through the town of Hermosa, known as the eastern gateway to the Black Hills. We see miles and miles of grasslands as we continue through Buffalo Gap and turn west toward Wyoming. Halfway through today’s ride, we arrive in Lusk, known for being the county seat of the least populated county in the least populated state of the US. We gas up, roll through Torrington, and eventually arrive in Wyoming’s capital city of Cheyenne at the end of a 291-mile day.

And now, today’s photos.

The temps were over 100 much of the day. Staying hydrated was at the top of the to-do list.
It was “only” 92 upon arrival in Cheyenne, which felt blissfully cool. Then, the skies darkened and it began raining. Walter Jr kept an eye on the hotel parking lot.
Walter Jr checks out the menu at Sanford’s Pub n Grub. So many choices, so little time
He chose Cajun ribs. Splitting a half rack with me.
Yes, I actually had a salad. Being a carnivore, Walter Jr passed.
But he devoured the ribs.
