Reached Shoshone, California

After a long flight we arrive in Las Vegas at night. After assembling our bicycles we cycle to a nearby hotel. The next morning we cycle along the famous Las Vegas strip. We then head towards Pahrump. From Las Vegas we have a big climb to the top of the Spring Mountain Pass of 5500 feet. Just after this pass we pick a place in the middle of the desert to pitch our tent in the wild. We notice a small rattle snake just passing near our campsite. Next morning we depart early and cycle through Pahrump to Shoshone. We now left Nevada and are now in California. We now have cycled 152 km in these two days.
