Following a series of setbacks (including a tire blowout like I've never seen on a bicycle before, forest fires, and a landslide) I end up crashing a wedding, making new friends, and accepting a gift of safe transport to Missoula. Enjoy the video story!

I made new friends at the Reflections Inn--Pete, Margaret, Paula, and Tom. Paula and Tom drove me to Missoula to escape the fires, the risks of my improvised tire, and the hazards on Hwy 12. We're all here with my bicycle and trailer loaded in the pickup at the end of Labor Day weekend.
