Monday July 9th now I am feeling the effects of that 102 mile ride yesterday. I am very tight this morning and it is hard to loosen up. It took me the first ten miles of our 98 mile ride to start feeling ok. We were riding from Kadoka to Pierre SD( they pronounce it pier) the state capital.Once again it was a day with only one town, Midland population 125. Once again it was rolling hills, wheat,corn,hay and cows. Today we picked up a 10mph headwind but after what we went through last week it was no big deal. As we rode into Pierre we crossed the Missouri River for the first time and it is truly a very wide and impressive river. In two days we have ridden 200 miles and evryone is tired tonight. Tomorrow we have a relatively short 74 mile day.
