Today we headed to Kansas….and it was a 100 mile trip.
Overall, the cycling today was pretty good for a century day. We woke up at 5:00, but since we crossed over into central time, we lost an hour. Normally on our longer days we don’t have anywhere to be before dinner, but today we had an arrival at one of the largest pools in the nation at 3:00. The team pushed it all day, even though for about half of it we had a head wind, and the entire team made it without having to be racked. I was pretty impressed with the team as a whole. One interesting thing about Kansas is how many birds are on the road as roadkill. I would never have thought that birds would be dead on the side of the road, but we’ve seen everything from hawks to small birds.
After the arrival at the pool, we swam a bit and really enjoyed the water slides. Tonight we are staying at the nicest comfort inn in the nation. It’s like going to the best pi kapp chapter (that’s how many awards this place has). I’m looking forward to the continental breakfast tomorrow.
For dinner we went to Golden Corral. The dinner was sponsored by two alumni from the Kansas State pi kapp chapter. It’s really nice that alumni are continually sponsoring our meals, but to be honest, I’m ready to start having some more friendship visits.
