Todays ride from Girard to Pittsburg Kansas was another battle with the heat and wind. After about 15 miles I hit a road closed sign..no prob as it said open to local traffic so I guessed bikes could get through...nooooo..the dam bridge wad down and I had to ride back to Girard and go around to the north...so..15 miles wasted..easy in a truck...somewhat irratating on a bike in 107f against a 30 mph wind.
I stopped in a gas station and saw the weather channel...hot hot hot and storm earnings in places...yipee.
So I just resolved to get to pitsburgh asap to avoid the real heat of the afternoon. Pittsburg super 8 motel only had smoki.g rooms so I left. The bike shop is shut until Tuesday. Hmmm...I'm starting to think the devil really does live in Kansas..lol!
But I'm really looking forward to meeting my mate from.vs planet tonight...its so cool to meet friends on a ride like this :))
