Saturday, June 11th .... Photos are of the typical little towns we are passing through. They all have flags out as well as the homes going into and out of town. The ride out of Indianapolis was much different than the ride into the city. Leaving this morning we were on bike paths, bike land and some bike trails. It was good roads and a safe route out of town where we picked up US 40. Some of the better roads we have seen in a long time. When we left, we had a little rain. It was unexpected as the forecast was not predicting rain. We rode 74 miles and tomorrow we are riding 105 miles. We are likely to get rain tomorrow as the forecast is about 50% chance most of the day. We are in a crunch zone as we are doing the 105-mile ride followed by three 90+ mile rides before our final rest in Erie. It is hard to believe we are coming to the end so soon!
Wednesday, May 18th .... I finished the day early! I left the hotel at 7:00 a.m. this morning and was at the next hotel in Grants by 12:30 p.m. I had my first flat tire but also had the help of two other riders in repairing it. My average speed was down a bit as the last six miles I just slowed down to see the sights of Grants. Generally, an easy ride!
