July 4, 2009, Saturday, Eads, CO to Lioti, Kansas

Mountain time ended, and Central time began after one county into Kansas. I’m now one time zone from home. The morning breeze from the northeast built into a head wind that reduced our average speed to 10 MPH. I spoke to Linda who informed me that my friend Jerry Messer and brother Bill wanted to meet us and ride a bit near Berea.

We reached Lioti around 6:00 p.m. where we found a campground at the Wichata County Fairgrounds where a local rodeo was going to start at 7:00 p.m.. We pitched our tents outside the rodeo arena, and then attended the rodeo, eating concession food during the rodeo. This was very interesting, and fun to watch, and really was a great way to celebrate Independence day!

Total miles for the day 81.95
