Day 18-Lander to Jeffrey City

That's it, Wyoming joins my special new list: dreadful places never to
visit again. I mean, Montana was empty but at least it offered
something to look at. Wyoming, nada, niente! Well apart from the two
national parks, but they can't cover more than 3% of the state.
Luckily, I'll be in Colorado soon. Today was a short ride of less than
60 miles, seriously the route planning around here was so difficult
because there are so few towns! I could have pushed through to Rawlins
but that would have been another 120+ miles day. So here I am, in the
ghost town that is Jeffrey City. It was a uranium mining city back in
the day, and its population peaked at 5,000. 4,950 of those people
were clever enough to move away when the boom was over! Today was the
first time I really dreaded seeing the inside of the motel, from how
awful it looked on the outside. Apart from the 70s décor and the just-
for-decoration TV, it's ok though! Good job another cyclist gave me a
book she had read back in Jackson, I'll need it tonight...
