Today turned out to be a straightforward 75 mile cruise through corn country. This was good because the weather predictions called for potential rain and headwinds neither of which we encountered. We’re all very thankful for this because tomorrow is a big day at 127 miles. We arrived in Sioux City early in the afternoon with spare time to get laundry done and recharge before our push eastward into Minnesota.

Cheers

Thanks for sharing your ride & thoughts. We do have incredible views of a diverse creation from coast to coast no matter how you travel... especially from your steady bike paced vantage point. Halfway plus & going strong.👊👍🚵‍♀️

Woo hoo! We cheered you on from our bike trip in Banff. Our favorite was the video clip of you racing the horses. Welcome to Minnesota.

Hey babe, you’re looking good. I mean really good.❤️❤️❤️ How many miles have you gone so far since you left? And I’m wondering what’s one thing that you thought about today while you were paddling working on being here now in the moment with every pedal stroke? I can tell you that I’m always thinking about what’s next what’s next? What’s next so staying in the moment can be very challenging. Let me hear from you on that question.❤️❤️❤️❤️

Jane
