Stage 6 (Jess)

10 AM (Sunday)
Started off less than ideal. My stomach shut down after stage 4. Couldn't keep anything down while Dario rode stage 5. Luckily, my stomach started functioning again an hour into stage 6. Just in time cause I started seeing stars. Had 25 mile climb, dirt and gravel road, then a 10 mile descent. Stats:
- Mileage: 35 miles
- Average: 14.2mph
- Max: 32.6 mph

I think I'm getting more car sick induced stomach upset. At least the legs are still working for now. Saw multiple people standing on the side of the road puking. Thought I might join then at 1 point. Funny, I have a bag of meds in the car, but didn't take any except for 2 advil. But that helped.

Dario is now on his last leg! I have a final 58 miles once he's done.
