Trevor, turn on your SPOT!
Looks like we've lost him again. I think he's still with this guy:

Trevor's MTBcast from Flagg Ranch, Wyoming
Hello this is Trevor Browne calling from Flagg Ranch in Wyoming. Trails are pretty good now. We've had some great weather, so all of our spirits have lifted and we're all quite happy. Had a great birthday ride yesterday, not a cloud in the sky. Trails are drying up, so it made me happy. The trails are great from Lima all the way through to Idaho. Everything's going great. So that's good. We just went through part of Yellowstone, just skirted the outside of it. Made it into Wyoming this morning. We're getting eaten alive by mosquitoes out here. It's pretty bad. A few bike repairs to do at the ranch on my own to prepare for the upcoming passes. Everything should go well. Feeling good. All the trails are really great all the way from Lima to here; it's all dry, so anyone else coming through is going to have a pretty easy time. I hope everyone is well. I just want to say hello to my family again and hello to Rachel. Call you guys soon.
Listen to the latest call from this racer here!

The boys are back!
Given the mileage yesterday and today, I'd say that things have taken a turn for the better. I am so proud of you!!

Paul's call
Trevor is riding with Paul and this is what he had to say before they set off today:
Hello, one more message from Paul here in Lima. Just 2 things...firstly I forgot to say in my earlier message that we should say hello to Cricket. Hope she's going well...hope she had a good day today and I'm sorry we couldn't...we didn't have the courage to come out with her. We needed our day's rest...we feel a lot better for it but I hope she's done well and tell her we're going to keep riding so if she needs more company we're just always coming along.
Secondly, we've just seen Pete Basinger who apparently set off from Banff, he didn't say when, and who came over the pass today into Lima and said that the mud had dried an awful lot compared to how it had been yesterday. He saw all our footprints and everything but could ride most of it, sat down for a bit and I think he rode most of it, over the pass anyway. So if anybody is following, maybe things have improved a bit and maybe that will give you some encouragement. We're hoping the same effect has happened on the road down south out of Lima and thereafter so we can actually do some cycling tomorrow.
So that's it for now...I've just realised that Lima where Paddington Bear might live is also just away from another famous English children's television character - Dillon - from the Magic Roundabout...and magic roundabout is something I feel I'm on at the moment. We're all heading off early, me, Per, Stephen and Trevor, at least as far as Mack's Inn tomorrow, further if we can. Bye
