Subject:      breakfast in Saltlake City
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"


The boys left Denver around 3pm yesterday, and arrived in Salt Lake City
this morning around 6:30.
They enjoyed a big breakfast of chicken fried steak and eggs and pancakes
and are now enroute to San Francisco through the desert in the heat of the
day!


They report no oil consumption(!) or problems, but lots of time in the
Colorado mountains in 2nd gear, around 23mph. 
Looks like they are generally cruising at a considerate 50-55mph when grade
is even, and 3rd gear in the low 40's  when attacking grades up to 3%.
Still disappointed with the transmission of photos from them, but a few
trickle in:
