Ash Grove, Mo - Pittsburg, KS
Miles: 70
Temp: 80s
Weather: light rain- sunny
Sleep: tent in the city park
In the middle of the night we were woken up by the police telling us we had the option of moving inside because the thunderstorm was "going to get bad" I started to pack up my sleeping things then thought 'no way, my tent is water proof!' I eventuilly fell back asleep and slept very well through the rain, wind, thunder and lightning. The next days ride was not bad at all. When we woke up the storm had left over some rain and wind but for the most part the it was a wonderful cool day to ride. In Golden city there is the best pie shop thus far on the trip called Cookys Cafe! Bryn and I had pie for lunch, then pie for dessert we both got one and split it. We got peach, german chocolate pie, and lemon merang. It was fantastic. You have to try some if you are ever near Golden City, Mo! After pie we had a very nice tail wind that carried us all the rest of the way into camp (40 miles). At one point, Bryn and I looked at eachother and started laughing because we were going a steady 20+ mph for a long time. It was really amazing!
