Tending to business.
Day 23: Felt like a work day, certainly some routines built in. Phil Young, our tour equivalent to Lance, is a great rider and fun to ride with. The two of us decided to get the ride over since there were not many photo opportunities. We took 2 mile intervals pulling each other and actually it made the long ride go much faster. We were able to find a few sights to take pictures of including a mother cow and her hefers, the Kansas state line sign and many wheat fields. I forgot to mention yesterday that one of our riders had to cut his trip short, John Gunderson from CA, had to leave because of problems that develop from a fall he took early on in the trip. He stuck it out for 20 days, a heroic effort on the part of a great guy. Tomorrow is a short trip over to Dodge City, a nice break after 3 century rides.
