For the numerically inclined

Here's something for the number crunchers out there: All the summary data from the Garmin. Pardon the formatting. The time column is elapsed time for that day, not ride time which would have been more interesting. My highest speed on the entire trip came on the first descent on day 1. You may also notice that we climbed more than we descended. That's actually accurate. We missed a major downhill section during the rainout at the Montana border.

The columns are set up as follows:
distance, time, max speed, ascent, descent
