Day 46: 107 miles, Jul 3

It rained today, so it was MUCH cooler. I managed to make it to the city park in Nickerson, KS, where the townspeople had a rollicking good time with firecrackers until midnight. Again, I called the sheriff, and again they paid me a visit, this time it was a friendly deputy, who assured me that, although the locals would be rowdy until midnight (the fireworks curfew), they were good poeple.

I'll confess I'm pretty exhausted after these two big days. But at least I made that cyclist's rite of passage: the century! Fortunately, the scenery was nice!
