Hello,
Sorry about being late but it has been harder than i thought to keep up on the road. The wireless Internet they claimed to had has the range of a rock gliding through the air "zip". We left Council Bluffs Iowa early around 5:30. It was cold and slightly foggy. We rode for about 6 miles and I was thinking boy is this ever so easy. That changed quickly when we hit the loess hills. They were steep and the sun was coming out. It heats up quickly. By the time we hit the meeting town of Emerson it was evident we were not going to sit any land speed records. The idea of meeting up with David and Lisa at the meeting towns were quickly dissipated. The crowds were too much for us to find them quickly and the parking was even harder for the support vehicles. By the time the end of the day was coming up. I felt pretty good and was starting going to go down the few hills left and the front tire started feel funny. I got a flat tire. It was really warm and I changed the flat tire pretty quickly. Melvin waited for me at the bridge coming into town. David and Lisa had the tent set up and we just sat down and rested. I drank quite a few gator aids that day. We ate supper close by. Were in bed by 9 or so.
