Miles of unused train cars
the infamous outhouse operated by Cathryn (below), much better than the side of the road and operated solely for the bikers
This was the only place to stop for food for the day. Another meal of sunchips & tea
Got a little lucky today and had no real winds. We started to pass a ton of bikers biking West to East. In Tribune we had passed a guy from England (biking without a helmet- genius) and today we encountered 7 more bikers (all guys- so far we have yet to see other females doing this although we know they are out there). One of the guys has been touring since 2002. He's been through all of Europe, Japan, China, Canada, etc., and now he is riding to Columbia. Crazy! We're starting to see the mountains now and we can't wait! We won't be sad to leave behind the flat, windy, and sparse territory that we have been biking through. Although I can say that everybody in Kansas was incredibly friendly - although not as friendly as Kentucky (I mean, nobody tried to get in bed with us).
We will spend the night in a cute little hostel called Hotel Ordway.
