Highway 50 is known as the Loneliest Road in the nation (for good
reason) and it would be very easy to get deep in trouble riding it on a
bicycle. The good news is that a lot of people travel it in RVs which are
usually a good source of water. Just stand by your bike and wave your water
bottle at them. If you need more than just water, remove the front wheel and
hold it in the air.
