Our friends have now made it into Prineville, OR. At the suggestion of some insightful bike shop employee (who are often rather insightful fellows) they took a bit of a detour through the town of Terrebonne. Chuck holds that the detour was worth it because it had a lot less traffic was very beautiful. After all, riding your bike across country is rarely about how fast you can do it, unless you're a sadistic RAAM contestant, in which case you are a highly unusual sort of cyclist.
Tomorrow, they need to make 50 miles to Ochoco Pass. Enjoy, friends, it looks like a beautiful ride.
