Hoosier Pass Colorado

We were really questioning whether we could pull that 75lb trailer up and over 11000 feet, (the altitude has been kicking our butts), but with Betsy's encouragement and legs we did it. We climbed over Hoosier Pass the highest point on the Trans-America Bicycle Route. We met 2 really nice guys (Dave and Devin)from the midwest who happened to summit at the same time as us, only they were heading west. After hugs and pictures we gave them contact information for Ontario Road Bikers and our home address to eat, shower, and sleep when they come through Ontario/Vale in a month or so. We told them to check out Jolts and Juice. We know they will feel welcome. We are staying in Fairplay, Co tonight and on to Canon City, Co tomorrow,(76 miles).
