Day 6 Preview

We got up early today (4:30 a.m.) and left at 5 AM to beat Chicago traffic. We made it to Omaha in just a little over 7.5 hours. We passed several RV's and cars with bikes attached to the back. My guess is most are driving across state tomorrow.

I rode 25 miles on both Monday and Wednesday. I had originally planned on riding tomorrow...short, quick, easy ride, but I've changed my mind. My goal tomorrow is to hydrate and give the legs one more day of rest.

For a complete day 6 preview, check out the link below. They summarize it well:
