Gary's Getting a Well Earned Rest

(John Henry Maurice) Gary's getting a well earned rest in a nice cool motel room.

But he is about to get back on the road!  Crew Chief Kevin plans on waking Gary at 5:00 pm PDT after a nice three hour sleep break.  This sleep break will allow Gary to bring his core body temperature back in line and will give him a fresh set of legs to race on.  Kevin is hoping to have Gary back on the road very soon.

The next leg of the race will take Gary to Congress, Az and is 53 miles long.  This is another climbing leg in which Gary will climb over 1,200 feet.  The current temperature in Salome is 103 degrees F so Gary will still have some heat to race in, but after tonight, the temperatures are expected to be much more reasonable.
