We were not much in the mood for riding today. We decided early into the ride that we would try to hitchhike to Tucson.
There was a sign of salvation at the top of a mountain pass. So close to civilization!
Though the views from the mountain pass were quite beautiful.
Luckily, the rest of the road wasn't very challenging.
I got a nasty flat just before we reached gas station we were going to try to hitchhike from. It turned out that tubes don't like to be slammed into boulders at 20 miles per hour.
We managed to find a truck that let is throw our bikes in the back. The owner of an ice delivery company gave us a ride for 70 miles into downtown Tucson.
After a short 15 mile ride from downtown, we made it to the Heuttners! We were greeted with beers and smiles.
I was also provided with a buzzer so that I could shave my face. It was nice to look human again.
