Day 13: One Rainy Day


So last night due to rain John and I decided to get a hotel room. We woke up at 5:30, had a nice breakfast and didn't end up leaving until 8. Throughout the whole day it was raining, cold and windy. Not an ideal day for biking. There were some winds out of the northwest which helped our average speed, which I believe ended up being about 19 mph. The ride went by rather fast and the workload wasn't too bad since the state has really started to flatten out. We are planning on a really long day tomorrow and hope to be into North Dakota by Thursday.


Miles Biked Today: 90
Miles Biked Total: 1012 (1000 down only 3000+ to go!)

Hope the tailwinds continue. By the way, your hair looks fabulous in the close-up from a couple days ago!!! Landon wants to know if you'll do this again with him in fifteen years.

Hi Adam:
I am a friend of your mom's and have really enjoyed following your trek across the country so far. I am amazed at you stamina, determination and great attitude along the way, making the best out of each situation you encounter. Way to go! Hope to get you hooked up with some lodging while in ND. Take care!
