More videos from where we last left off.

Day 11: Phil heads to Saguache, CO. Phil's tired and sitting on that bicycle seat is taking a toll on left butt-tock. He's greeted by the TAR theme song and goes over the Continental Divide.

Day 12: Phil goes to Johnny Fairplay, CO.

Day 13: Phil arrives in the Mile High City, Denver, CO. Phil gets a nice sendoff from Fairplay. Phil also confirms the finale date of TAR.

Seriously, Phil crashes into a car, but is ok.

Day 14: Rest day. Phil says goodbye to Ben Cornell who has ridden with Phil throughout the first two weeks of the Ride Across America.

Day 15: Phil heads to Fort Morgan, CO. Margie & Luke are there to see Phil off.

More videos soon.

We continue with the videos:

Day 16: Phil rides to Wray, CO and is very tired. Phil takes off from Fort Morgan on Easter Sunday. And the wind and rain really hits hard on this ride. And Phil wears his first Snuggie.

Day 17: Phil finally leaves Colorado and heads into McCook, NE.

Day 18: Phil rides to Holdrege, NE.

Day 19: Phil is in Sutton, NE. As you can see, Phil is wiped out from another tough ride.

I'm waiting on Days 20 & 21 and when they're posted, I'll put them up here.

riding to chicago today. check out new video - day 23,24 and 25 - http://www.philridesacrossamerica.com/daily_blog.html

CBS is doing a bad job posting videos. I'm doing them in order and they've stopped at day 19 and jumped to day 22. Plus, they're not posting the supplemental vids that Phil has posted on the website. I'm hoping to get those up myself somehow.
