Day 13 – wow, time flies (and so do we)

We’re over 12,000 miles – will we make 30,000? We also have 42 official potatoes.

Here are our SIX spuds pedaling over the century mark today: Sinful Spud, Got Tot?, Sour Mash Spud, Campbell’s Potato Soup, Golly D Tater, Christmas Potato

And today’s commentary as we sweat it out in the July heat (and our Mashed Potato pedals on!):

Darth Tater – Sunrise beach

Flower Bud Spud – Am peloton ride

Yam Kronen – Wicked waves and wind on Lake Michigan!

Pacific Potato – Visiting family but was able to get in a morning ride. It was very hilly and is now my personal longest ride of this year’s tour.

Chip-n-Dale – Early morning ride through Sandbridge.

Potato Prez – Still a Mashed Potato, but carrying on!

Eveready Yam – Nice ride in the woods in the middle of Columbia Maryland – did not know it existed!

As for the boys in France – a Mashed Potato:

Defending champion Tadej Pogacar has stamped his authority on the 2025 Tour de France, wrestling back the yellow jersey from previous leader Ben Healy and demolishing all his rivals on stage 12 of the race. Stage 12, a 180km run from Auch to Hautacam saw the first real mountain test of the Tour and Pogacar – despite suffering a late crash in the closing kilometres of stage 11 – passed with flying colours, powering away from his rivals on the lower slopes of the infamous hors-categorie Hautacam.
