Solo to Salida

Today I'm headed out on a solo trip to Salida. My route will be a little different than last month's trip. The first section to Guffey will be mostly on the road traveling up Ute pass on through Divide and over to Guffey for lunch. The second part will be the same high route that Ron and I took last month.
I mapped the route out and it's a little shorter and a bit less climbing. Since I'm riding a Single Speed this time and plan to complete the ride in one day I choose an shorter and maybe easier route.
My bike of choice will be my Bianchi San Jose SS cross bike. Mostly because of the last 20+ miles of rough decent into Salida.
Going light as usual with just a water bottle, Camel Back and some snacks.
Rain gear, spare tubes and the normal cache of tools.
Wish me luck, my eta is 7pm.
