Day 8 — Bike Maintenance & Hyalite Reservoir Date: Tuesday 9/10/2024 Destination: Local Ride: Hyalite Reservoir Travel Time: not recorded Miles: not recorded Notes: Woke up to a smoky sunrise. I had the best night’s sleep I’ve had in years. This is was the whole point of this trip: to untangle my burnout and reclaim sleep as one of my joys. I wrote about it in my journal when I woke up. I hope this wasn’t a fluke. Planned to replace the bolt that rattled loose from the crash bar, but instead discovered that it had actually severed off at the mount point. No fixing that on the road. Adjusted chain and moved on. Lunch at Mountains Walking Brewery in Bozeman. Rode up to Hyalite Reservoir. Pretty ride. Smoky still. Soaked in hot tub after dinner.
