Derrick said, 'It's like biking with a chicken.'
Shawn looks a bit skeptical of their tire changing capabilities. This is 1 of 2 in their series of flat tires for the day.
The fearless foursome is in Kentucky! However, they didn't get there without difficulty. I'm imagining this is where they may have started wondering 'Why are we really doing this?' The cool thing about this is that their pain is our gain. I get much more intriguing pictures from them when they're having trouble. Not only did they run into some rain, but they also had two flat tires.
Rest assured, last time I talked to them, they were eating supper at a Ponderosa. So all-in-all, some rain and flat tires behind them, they got in 55 miles today. Their plans are to bed down in Maysville, Kentucky. To the bikers I say, I hope you encounter better circumstances tomorrow. To the readers I say, I'd better go, because my wife is coming with milkshakes. I do have a wonderful wife!

He might look like a chicken, but at least he still has a big smile on his face!

Hey nice to see you all in Hillsboro. Shawn, thanks for letting me relive my youth a bit by taking a spin on the ol pedaler. I ruled CR 201. But those days are over. BTW i think you guys will get to Fla ahead of schedule. Cause you're just so "lets go gettem"

yeah i have cycled across kentucky (and 14 other states)....lots of dogs. My friend actually hit one at 35 mph. not so much of a great time for him, his bike, or the dog. But it makes a great story for the rest of life which is what makes riding a bicycle for long distances worth the effort. That and nice legs.
