Today was more difficult than an Ironman Competition. At one point during the day around 1:30 PM I decided to push on. The map said no services for 58 miles. The wind was relentless and it was Hot. I made it to Larned Kansas around 7:30 PM. I was tired. I camped in a city park.
Like surfing in the ocean the large trucks blowing by you in the oncoming lane create a large gust of wind like a giant wave at the ocean. I started grabbing my lower handlebars and crouching to lessen the effect of the wind gust smashing into me like diving into the waves at the ocean.
Still reading along with your journey. Sounds difficult, but I'm enjoying the pictures and the updates. -- jc
