What a new adventure riding in the rain on a 114 mile day! WOW! We ate so much food in order to deal with the demands of this longest distance ride and yet...wait, there is more. We have another LONG distance ride in tomorrow, too.
Today all of us were very excited about the cool rains, cloud cover and TAIL WINDS! (Sweet)
The extra challenge today included not one but two flat tires. The first occured inside the dormitory at Dordt College out of the rain. The second, well with a little help from friends, we changed not just the tube but the whole tire. Two thousand miles on one tire was not too bad. I rode the whole day with Justin. Great ride getting to know about each other and fullfilling the intergenerational interaction relationship building activities. (Thanks Justin!)
Our satellite technician may arrive tomorrow so many more will be able to post blog content soon. I am using cell phone technology as a modem.
Remember, it is ok to post a comment or two.

It's been pretty rainy here in the east as well. Major thunderstorm tonight.
I will be getting a few days ride in with you to GR as I will be back next Tuesday night/Wed morning I think.
So, keep the posts up when you can and I'll be sure to read them.
Shalom -
