2241.2 miles
We awoke early this morning and hit the road at six. The car was due back at 1:30 in Sioux City, and we were hoping to get a few miles away from the city. We stayed and extra day in Columbia, so we are running a little behind schedule. We were hoping that fresh from the weekend we could make some easy miles.
That is not true. Taking more than one day off the bike is too many. Our bodies are unaccustomed to riding and we are lazy. Plus, it is hot. Too hot. We hit the heat of the day in Sioux City, and it was miserable.
42 miles seemed like much further than it should have across the plains of Iowa. At least there were showers when we got into camp.
