THURSDAY 30 JUNE

Day 13: Browning - Chester


Distance: 105.0 miles


Having paid an extortionate sum for the motel we felt obliged to demolish the morning's continental breakfast buffet. Tropicana, chocolate milk, cereal packs, danishes, yoghurts, breakfast bagels, breakfast burritos - nothing survived the carnage that ensued.


Retired to our room feeling decidedly bloated - we felt it was time to quit when we almost wretched up the breakfast burritos we had just stuffed down. I'm hoping we got somewhere near our value for money.


Set off a bit late because we took advantage of the 11am check out time but we were swept onwards by the prevailing westerly winds to Cut Bank - hopefully these conditions were representative of how it would be the whole way across the plains of Montana and North Dakota.


Having coasted with a tailwind for most of the day, awful side winds almost blew us into the road just after Cut Bank but we soon turned East again and coasted the rest of the way to Chester.


Camped in the city park in Chester for free.
