Morning at Mid Hills campground, Mojave National Preserve, before starting today's ride to Howe Spring

I woke up to hot sun baking the tent around 8h, but a few dark clouds, a refreshing cool breeze, and a few stray raindrops have since moved in. It's a pleasant 77 degrees right now.

I slept really well last night, unlike the night before. Breakfast is again granola, tamari alomnds, tart dried plums, a couple of slices of dried pineapple, a small pot of tea and an electrolyte-replacer drink.
