After a quick boring breakfast at the McDonald's in the hotel, my first stop will be the Starbucks on the other side of the freeway, and the gas-station store for water. It's amazing how terrible the tap water in the hotel tastes.

2.5 miles beyond Nipton, I'm feeling hot again and notice some potential shade as I cross under the power lines

After my coffee and water stop at the gas station (I don't need gas), I leave pavement and ride down this dirt road out of Primm
