Report from Tracy, she spent the night in Butte mostly because she was not feeling well again. Nausea and diarrhea have returned. She got dehydrated yesterday and we believe that has contributed to problems with altitude acclimation. She has spent the morning dealing with those issues. She also was experiencing face numbness. So this all led to a late start out of Butte but she is now on her way. Taking it hour by hour.
She did a callin last night, you can follow this link to hear it:
Tracy's callin from Butte.
Come and follow Tracy Burge as she sets out to conquer the 2700 mile "Tour Divide" mountain bike race. That's 2,745 miles of mountain biking adventure on single track, dirt roads, gravel roads and some pavement following the continental divide from Canada to Mexico. All in a month's time or less. That's 2700 miles of pure adventure.
