Day 2 Biking Iowa
It is about 4 here in Manning Iowa. I am running late on the day. The hills have been treacherous for us flat Florida riders plus we have had a significant headwine.. Think I pulled a groin muscle, but still have about 15 miles to go today, so will be bolting pretty quickly. Will try to upload pictures later tonight. but even Cell phones are spotty here. The ride has been highlighted today with extremely friendly towns. Welcoming committees and these towns go all out.
Top speed yesterday for me was 33 mph, never could beat it today, but will keep trying.
Beer and rock and roll seems to help the groin muscles.
John made it in yesterday at 9:30 AM, I got there at about 1:30. We are on different rides - he missed the girls and the bloody marys at the Fireside Steak House and today he has missed the big beer garden in Manning, I am sure he is already at the end stop.
We ate Ida Grove out of food. Only a few places still had food remaing around 730 PM last night. More to come soon. Anyone want to ride next year ? We now have pictures on TAMPAGOLD with more coming when I can upload.
