Carl and I had another night shift (we seem to be the night riders) last night as we tackled the roller coaster hills of Missouri. They are awesome. Carl and I were both a little off the night before, but we were in top form last night.
We both were very strong and able to attack the hills to maintain speed. We covered about 100 miles during our 5 hour shift and were still very fresh and strong. We could have easily gone another couple of hours but they pulled us off the road and put us in the RV.
Our next riding shift will be late Friday afternoon when we should be near the western border of Illinois. Based on the maps, it looks like about 120 miles to cross the state. If we get favorable tail winds and decent roads, we are hoping to take the state from border to border. I will let you know tomorrow how it worked out.
