July 14.
Today we biked 64 miles further west into Kansas. It was a hard day. The wind was against us and the temperature was about 105. As an added bonus, my gearshift stopped working about 3 days ago and I’ve been biking in one gear for the last three days. With the wind and a few hills it was pretty challenging.
Tomorrow, I hope to have a battery shipped to a bike shop in Wichita. I will get a ride there, hopefully get things fixed and catch up with the rest of the group tomorrow evening.
