-Larned = we are here now! It was a long, straight, 60 mile ride with no amenities, but we made it (from Nickerson)...and we were welcomed into the city with free access into the pool! Thank you so much, Larned! They've got tunes playing, and I'm digging it! The girls are planning on riding another 50 miles or so to Bazine. The guys may stay behind...who knows, the day is still young.

-Okay, I'm tired of writing potential cities...you get the idea. Although, I'm really sure we'll be getting a new route after Missoula, MT. We'll keep you in the loop.

Here's where the girls are right now. We woke up around 5am to avoid the hot Kansas heat. The boys preferred sleep...We should see them in a few hours or so. Silly thing happened this morning when they were sleeping and right before we were leaving: the sprinklers where we were camping went off...the boys awoke abruptly and sleepily tried to solve the problem. Oh yea, and the Arkansas River is properly pronounced the "R Kansas" River...We are in Kansas after all.

  2. Jeanne, Kevin and Crew!

    I Just tuned in for an update and can't believe when I google map Larned you are just about half way across the country.

    Super effort guys - don't let the long flat miles get you down - just get kevin to tell you about the time he woke up to a giant zucchini in his bed? Or ask about the miles he did in 'Arthur' a car which was probably cheaper than any bike he's ever owned, and I'm still getting sent speeding fines from its new owners!

    Anyways, We really want to try and catch up with you guys in the North West. We Fly into LA on Thursday 1st August and will spend a week RV'ing it to Portland, OR. Then head East to Yellowstone, I reckon we will probably cross paths somewhere in the WA/ID/MO/WY region.

    What is the best way to stay in contact with you? Can you get Kevid to shoot me an email with some details, we'll do our best to catch you and shout you a round or two!

    Great work guys! See you soon.

    Toff
