Hey, this is Rick calling in from the Tour Divide.  Notes from the back of the pack.  The four of us that were staying at the, actually five of us, that were staying at Seeley Lake left this morning.  Deanna and Brad were going to try to make it to Helena today.  Martin and Jeff and myself left later and we are here at Lincoln right now.  I did alright but my knee is still hurting it doesn't allow me to stand up and pedal any, so, on these climbs I'm constantly sitting on the seat, which, causes a problem with my butt.  But we'll see how much longer it'll take to get this knee squared away.  I don't know if I can last much longer with just pedaling up these passes with one good leg.  I havn't been able to stand up and pedal since the border when I first hurt my knee.  But we'll go ahead and plug along and see how it does.

Listen to the latest call from this racer here!

Way to go Rick!

You are amazing! Sorry about your knee. Any chance of finding any good acupuncturists at the Waypoints? It might get you through.
