Day 30 Sea 2 Shining Sea

Great day of riding on the best roads so far of the trip. Yesterday we ended on 15 miles of the crappyist road, so having good roads were much appraicated. We had a great group to ride with Paul, James, Jeffery and Larry and myself. Western Kansas is rolling, not bone ass flat like eastern Kansas. ( I think some of the state line are in the wrong places. Denver is in Kansas because it is flat and no one told the people of Denver. And western Kansas is actually in Missouri because the flatness ends and the rolling hills have begun. Anyway....) We had lots of fun with the rolling hills, it took away the bordum of the flatness. Maybe someday soon the roads will start to turn some, so we don't have to see where we are going to be a half hour away.

Today was a nice long ride of 102 miles. Another century and another state line in the books. I can't tell you how excited I am to see Kansas go into the rearview mirror. We broke the bike ride into nice bite size sections for our own sanity. First water stop, second water stop, first lunch, water stop, second lunch, water, water, water. You get the idea. We drink alot of water. With all that water comes a lot of pee breaks with those water stops. The miles just flow by today. Before we knew it we were in Warrensburg, Missouri.
