Today the ride was another long one, we went 90 miles from Jackson, MN to Sioux Falls, SD. The day was windy, although compared to yesterday's wind, this was a joke(only 10-15 mph)! We once again rode for over six hours again today, but were in considerably better spirits since we both made it in earlier than yesterday, and also were able to actually feel like we were going at a normal pace since the wind wasn't as bad. We entered South Dakota today, my 14th state of the trip, and so far it looks a lot like Minnesota, which looked a lot like Wisco, so just more corn farms, and rolling hills. Tim crashed again today(he's had the worst luck) going downhill into a big pothole and flipped and I guess it was pretty bad, he ended up going to the hospital, but everything was alright, and he came through with only a few scratches. I also passed 2000 miles total today, so the trip is already half over, which is a weird feeling, I can't believe that its almost July already! The Zion church here in Sioux Falls made us a dinner of fried chicken and pizza, which we were really thankful for, and after that, we just relaxed for the evening. Tomorrow we ride into Mitchell SD, which is supposed to be a big city but a shorter ride, and the site of our next rest day.
Animals seen: One speedy little dachshund who tried to catch us for a 1/4 mile.
