Illini 4000

View Original

Cloudy with a chance of rain

The weather for our 60 mile bike ride today was awesome. The clouds and slight mist kept us cool during our ride through the busy hills and roads. It felt great compared to the last two days in the heat. Everyone arrived in Gettysburg before 2pm so we all had some time to relax. Some went to explore Gettysburg for a little while, some did laundry so they would finally have a fresh new pair of clothes, and some went to the bike shop to fix up their bikes. Jeff's family dropped off his new bike since his last one broke a couple days ago. They also brought some great snacks/beverages to hold us over for a while. They will defientely come in handy during  our 85 mile ride through the montains tomorrow. Tomorrow will be challenging.  Thank goodness Illinois doesn't have hills!
