USA coast to coast day 4 Blythe to Wickenburg







 185 KM, 1,099M climbed, 7 hours 19 minutes 

Total 626KM, 3,434M climbed, 25 hours 17 minutes 

Cooler day today as I have now started climbing which made the ride that much easier 

Longest ride of the trip and also first state crossing when I cycled across the Colorado River and into Arizona.  The desert scenery changed from the Mojave desert and is more green and far more cacti which look like those I used to see in the Wylie Cayote cartoons 

Some very straight roads that stretch in the distance for miles.  There were climbs today but small gradients of 2% but went on for miles

A long day but amazing scenery and enjoyed the 10 mile descent into Wickenburg
