Day Off

Today is our first day off, in Louisville Kentucky. We all survived our first century, biking 114 miles from Flatwoods Kentucky to Paris Kentucky. The next day we did another 85 miles into Louisville. We went out last night to see the city and it was a lot of fun. There were a lot of college aged kids out because the university is really close by. We had an unbelievably good dinner in a park put on by some of the riders families. We had Qdoba and delicious pasta salad. THen we had "Puppy Chow" for desert which for anyone that doesnt know is chex mix covered in peanut butter and chocolate and then roled in confectionary sugar. I had never had it before but it was sooooo good. We are now at a coffee shop and will probably walk down town today to see the area during the day. We also got passes to a country club with a pool that is supposedly at least 5 times the size of an olympic pool so that is going to be a lot of fun, and then maybe a cook out at one of the riders families houses. Our next day off isnt until Moab Utah so I am trying to get the most out of this day as possible. I am sorry there are no pictrues up but I have not had a chance to upload any yet, but there are pictures on others riders blogs that you can get to through the bike and build website. I am having an unbelievable time and it is crazy to see how after 95 mile days and 114 mile days, an 85 mile day seems like nothing. Kentucky has been beautiful, a lot of horses and farms. We head to Indiana tomorrow and into a new time zone pretty soon! Ill write again soon hopefully!
