We're happy to report that after yesterday's "ride of shame" we finished today's ride on a good note. We had a great ride thanks to about 68 degree weather and all day cloud cover. This morning was beautiful. We went over the Cedar River and saw the collapsed train bridge ( from the recent floods).
We've finished the 64 mile ride with energy to spare. We are heading to the campground's water park now! I have some interesting stories to share, but need to find juice for the blackberry first!

By the way, this is a picture of us with Satchel Page (yes he produced i.d. to prove it). He is known as the "root beer man" as he has it on tap. We were happy to see him today as he is always located in the last few miles of the each day's ride!
