I’m not sure if I am posting images or not from my phone. So, I apologize but this will just be text today.
What a difference a day makes. Today was overcast, cool, and featured an all-day long tailwind. Riding the pavement bits was super-easy.
Gravel was split up into three sections. It was fun. Maybe not super-scenic but far different than Iowa. Big ranches, lots of grass, and funny shaped hills dominated the landscape. It’s a big, empty feeling area which is full of song birds and cattle. Very peaceful.
The last bit of gravel was challenging with a few big, long climbs. Again, very different from Iowa where our climbs get steeper at the top. Here the steep part is in the middle of the climb and the climbs are longer for sure.
Got in 75 miles I haven’t ridden that far since last year
Got to the campground in Spencer Got settled in and was looking for the showers when I noted an okde woman she was slender, about 5’8”, and looked as though she was looking for something or someone she turned to me and asked if I knew where the showers were
That’s when her face suddenly brought me to attention The unique eyewear, her voice, and I knew it had to be Jacquie Phelan, but was it really? Why on Earth would she be on the BRAN ride
Well, as it turned out, it WAS her!
More soon…
