Earl has been writing most of the blogs and I have been posting the pics. Today for some reason he is unable to get 3G so Nancy is posting.
Left La Junta after a big breakfast. I wonder what these Jr college food staff think about the amount of food eaten by 40 bicyclists.
We had another beautiful day of sun and tail wind. Rode about 10 miles to Bent's Old Fort. Lucky to be there during an Enactment happening at the fort. Was nice to converse with the different people. I considered a " loose woman" due to my tight clothing! Saw a billiard table that was 9x5!
Back on the road we had a nice tail wind to Hasty where we stopped for lunch purchased at the grocery store. The last 20+ miles was mostly a gradual downhill and a nice tailwind. I think we averaged about 20mpg on that last stretch! 17.4 average for the day!
Staying at Lamar Community College. Will see how much everyone eats for supper tonight. 80+ miles tomorrow to Lakin KS. So carb loading is a must along with another early bedtime. Gets dark early and no one really stays up late.
