Day 21 - July 7 Rest

I woke for a moment at 7am, got up at 9am and then we went to town and had breakfast. I visited a small Iowa DOT office to try and find a book on the flowers by the road side that Jan told me about. They had a handout that had most and now I want to see if Matt and Gary will agree to ride around until I can get photos of each kind. I wonder if they will notice if we don't continue east each day?


We came home and a nap caught me in mid stride. After a short time I determined that someone should ride today. I got ready and headed south out of Fremont directly into a good head wind. Remember, it is an investment into the wind as long as at some point you get to turn around and fly back to the start. I went south at under 15 mph and returned home above 20 mph. I stopped and took pictures along the way. The 20 mile ride was a bit warm at 95, I was gald to be back.



Hey Bob does a deer rust to red like this or what? OOPS! Lets not make a case out if it.

OK Larry, enough of the red machines. You may end up sleeping in the SUV tomorrow night.

I'm glad you got a chance to ride today. I'm looking forward to riding with the team on Wednesday. Please find a bunch of hills for Matt and Gary to ride tomorrow. I will need to slow them down a little in order to keep up with them.

Bob
