Day 17
Hardin to Sheridan, WY - 84 miles
Today we finally left Montana. That is one big state. The first 60 miles were up hill into a head wind, what fun....
As we traveled towards Sheridan we crossed the Crow Indian Reservation. I think the conditions there are worse than some third world countries. We also found that everyone had at least two dogs that were not fenced in and seemed to be very hungry. We spent most of the morning either out running the dogs or squirting them with water bottles.
We also travel past Custer's Last Stand battlefield. This seems to have turned into a tourist trap.
We have some unique bikes as well as riders on the trip. One bike has a box fairing behind the seat that he thinks makes him go faster. He has been nicknamed "Fast ass". The level of bikes is also a big spread, from about $300 to $10,000.
