Racer update about:
Hey here Matthew Lee calling from Poncha Springs. Its Thursday the 26th around 3:50. I just left Salida. I'm at the gas station grabbing some snacks before climbing up Marshall Pass. Big thanks to Absolute Bikes for taking good care of me and cleaning everything up for the final stretch. I will say that I miss Reuben's companionship. I haven't heard yet what he has decided to do. Hopefully he is pressing on, maybe tomorrow morning. So anyway yeah final stretch here. Starting feeling a little tired. The rough was definetly tough this year. Looking forward to the Mexican Border. Ok, cheers.

Go Matthew Go!
I've e-mailed Gila Hike & Bike that you are on the way. Hopefully they'll be sending someone down to meet you (and whoever else finishes that needs help) at Antelope Wells. Hopefully with some cold Tecate.
Good luck!
MM

Just spoke to Jay at Gila. They don't have anyone to send. If someone is planning on being at the finish when Matthew, please let me know. I have something I need to get to him. Sherry O.
