 Today the ride was from great Bend, Kansas to McPherson Kansas. I am not sure if I mentioned this previously, but I did start this venture with a pulled hamstring. Over the course of the several weeks I’ve been on this the hamstring is actually gotten better but over the last two days it was starting to ache again last night. It was quite uncomfortable. So today I decided to take my venture on the four wheels in the SAG wagon. I have to say that the scenery wasn’t any different than the last several days. Tonight I actually feel much better and I plan to ride tomorrow. Below are a few pictures from some of the ones my friends have taken.One of the pictures below of me on the lien is essentially what I wrote today :-)

Days 2&3

 Yesterday on day two we rode to Indio California. I did pretty well. I did get in the SAG wagon for a little bit. But I was able to complete the ride to the hotel. We rode through Palm Springs, which was an interesting place with lots of wealthy places. The town or city itself had a lot of different shops and restaurants. We did not eat there though. Although at the end of Palm Springs, or as I was leaving it, I did stop at a Carl juniors and had a couple of pieces of chicken and was able to fill up my fluids with lots of ice. It was quite warm yesterday. I did not take any pictures and I apologize for that. I was pretty intent on just doing the ride.  and had a couple of pieces of chicken and was able to fill up my fluids with lots of ice. It was quite warm yesterday.

First Day

Image
 I completed my first day.  I did pretty well. I completed 77 out of 84 miles. Had a little difficulty with nutrition and hydration at one point. Overall, it was a good day. Went through a lot of LA. Also went through a place called Gardena which reminded me of skiing in Italy. We were at Val Gardena. The last 7 miles were a climb similar to the beginning of the Kangamangus Clinb and I decided to play it safe and get in the SAG wagon. Most of the scenery today was city like. We did go through an area of where multiple homeless folks were living. That was kind of sad. Below is a picture of me at Manhattan pier just before we left. That is today’s update.
