Tuesday, March 7 - El Centro, CA to Wellton, AZ

 Today we started in El Centro, CA and ended in Wellton, AZ. We covered 100 miles (I had to add an extra 3 miles to get to 100. I know it was crazy, but I did it anyway.) I felt really good. Our group rode well together as well. Hope that doesn’t change. We rode on some really rough roads though. Almost unrideable at times. The secondary roads in the desert are really not good. If you live in the east, you have never seen roads like we rode on today. We saw lots of sand and desert scrub too, but it was very pretty and not boring like I thought it might be. We crossed into Arizona about halfway and into the town of Yuma. What a gem of a town. The first place on this trip that I might consider as a place to live. Kind of an oasis in the desert. Green and clean. Might be too hot in the summer though. We had one big climb at the end of the day and then came into Wellton, AZ. We capped off the day with pizza and salad.
