TOday was the longest ride of my trip so far. I reached just over 110 miles and the last 50 miles was in rain. It is amazing how cold it has been here. It rained for the majority of the last 50 miles and it was about 68 degrees outside. I never thought that I would be this cold in Kansas. Today was an interesting day because I could ride 52 miles or I had to go 110 miles. The services are becoming harder to find and they will not be abundant until Pueblo, CO. I am going to have to carry more water and food in these areas to be safe. The weather is suppose to be cool for the next day or two and then it will get into the 100`s.
The ride was great in the morning I got to see the Big Salt Marsh of Kansas which was awesome. After that everything was pretty boring.
