Godspeed and safe passage to you, Justin! May the Force be with you, may your strength and stamina prevail, may your decisions be wise and timely, may the weather cooperate, and may you savor to the max every moment of the adventure! I'll be praying and pulling for you.

Quiet start to a big quest. Good luck Justin.

Looks like he's in Woodland Park after a 102 mile ride from Boulder.

The tracker has him on the Pike's Peak Toll Road now. Does he bike up that road? Is that part of it? Bicycling up the mountain where possible? Just curious. Not sure if it would have been feasible to carry his bike on that route he took to the road though.

Not sure exactly where, but it looks like Sunlight Spire is center, with Vestal and Arrow peak in the background.

EDIT: After a little more research, it's from the summit of Windom Peak.

1 down, 100 something to go. Now for him to cruise back down crags and get his bike.
