Distance - 41.7 miles
Thanks Joel!! We were bums at my brothers place for almost 2 whole days, and I don't think the rest could have been any better for us. We got to take care of some bike maintenance, some beer drinking, some serious buffet eating, quality family (well at least for me) visiting, and much more. Thanks again Joey, Casey, Mom, and Joe for coming up to Fort Collins.
Forgive us for being lazy with the blog updates, they take a while to type into the phone, we don't always have phone service so that we can post them, and many times sleep comes too soon after the longer days of riding, but mostly we're just lazy. So basically just forgive us for being lazy.
Anyways, we of course started late out of Joel's place because sleeping in is so tempting when you have a nice place to sleep. And also because we had strewn our stuff about his house and it took a while to pack. The late start combined with another flat for James and I both and a stop at a bike shop in Loveland made for our day to be cut short. But in the words of Sam, "I've never been so gale to see such non-scenery!". We're excited about the flat terrain in eastern Colorado and Kansas that should make for easy riding. We're staying at a park in Kersey tonight and beginning work on all the food mom stocked us with.
Sam and I actually walked away from the local gas station with about $40 worth of free hot sandwiches though because we had just asked them if they were going to throw them away. They said sure just take them so I guess the soup can wait until tomorrow!
I'm also proud to say that for the first time ever tonight, I was asked where Virginia was. Maybe it's not such a small world after all?
