What comes
to mind, when you ask
somebody, to freely
associate a mode of
transportation with
Wyoming ? The answer might
be "the horse", or maybe
for people who just travel
from one coast to another,
the airplane or the car.
The bicycle will probably
not even be second or
third.
That's too bad. Wyoming
has great cycling,
boasting better conditions
than many of its
neighbors. The roads tend
to be wider, and shoulders
more common and with fewer
rumble strips.
Wyoming has a reputation
for being windy. But -
let's face it - the wind
blows everywhere,
including this high
dessert. And Wyoming also
has the best paved climb,
that Montana is famous
for: Beartooth Pass.
