Day 30 - 063009

Nickerson, KS to Larned, KS - 60 miles


We started the morning by visiting the KwikShop for breakfast and to fill up on endless Gatorade once again. The riding was nice today with flat terrain, cooler temperatures, and less brutal headwinds. We stopped twice but only briefly roadside for snacks and water refills before pulling into Larned, KS and heading straight for the Peking Garden Chinese Restaurant for the Chinese lunch buffet. After lunch we headed to the Larned City Park and The Larned Swimming Pool for the afternoon. The pool was amazing with two diving boards, a water slide, and several basketball hoops. Kevin, Bret, and I decided to stay on top of our blogs so we headed over to the Jordaan Memorial Library for a few minutes of internet access. The group then headed over to the Pizza Hut after we were offered a discounted pizza buffet. Thank you again! We arrived back at the park to camp and discovered that other cyclists (a man from California, two people from West Virginia, and two were from the Netherlands) had joined our camp.
