Egyptians in Scott City

It was a 63 miler today and the best day for a ride. Never have I felt more energized while riding. The roads were smooth, quiet, and flat. We averaged 20 mph which is amazing for us. The wind was fairly calm for this part of the country and sort of at our back. The sky was overcast and somewhat cooler. All his adds up to a wonderful first day. Now we are in Scott City--chillin' in the city park in front of our tents getting our appetites ready for brats at the Lutheran church.

So were do the Egyptians come in? Well, Beth is from this area and she wanted to take us to a place she calls "the pyramids". It was a long drive on gravel roads through random desolated areas, but I do have to say that it was a very unique geological structure. I can say that this is a once in a lifetime visit! Been there, done that.

So tomorrow it is on to Ness City. What awaits us there...
