6-15 Monday

Bardstown to Larue County Community Park in Hodgenville KY - 40.5 miles

We were able to sleep-in today considering our epic ride the day before.  We decided to do 40 miles and stay on our present time frame.  The end of last night was plagued with flat tires as our group got 4 within the final hour of riding.  Amanda and I continued this luck into today as we both got flats.  Here is Amanda, now a champion at the process, changing her tire sometime in the a.m.
We're now starting to enter the agriculture of America.  Wide sweeping plains of corn, wheet, and beans now begin to line the sides of the road.

Per usual, we caught about an hour of rain at the end of the day.  We stayed at a park with terrible plumbing... now hot water, toilets that barely flushed, and faucets that spattered.  We were joined with great company as two people that were met on the '07 trip came with goodies, food & drink!  Thanks Matt and Michelle.
