Tuesday. Easiest ride of the trip. 55 miles, one flat straight road, cooling breeze, nothing but corn, cows, wheat and soy beans. Made it to larned, Kansas by 11:15am. We’re staying in a church that’s air conditioned and a shower in the adjacent pastor’s house. Great hospitality. Last night it was way too hot to cook so out for pizza at gambino’s. I made sure I got a seat facing the door. Even with air conditioning in the motel last night I didn’t stop sweating until about 2:00am so it was terrific to get up and take a shower.

  1. It makes me wonder what the pastor has been praying for if he ends up with a line of sweaty bikers waiting to use his shower. Glad you had an easy day.

    We're thinking of you....
