GARDEN CITY KS

50 miles of head winds and our 3rd flat of the trip 10 miles out of our destination, Garden City, KS. A nice gentleman (Kevin Stapleton) stopped while we were changing our tire and helped hold the back of the bike up. Unfortuately we are getting used to riding in the wind. We stopped for lunch at a Subway in Lakin, KS after 25 miles this afternoon and met a very nice couple from Tennessee (Charlie and Teresa Barnard) who were on their own cycle adventure (motorcycle). We had a nice visit. Charlie is a bicyclist also. He owns a Giant bicycle. We are off to Dodge City, Kansas tomorrow and hopefully with no wind or at least a tail wind.

  1. It was very nice to meet you both! Good luck to you on the rest of your trip! I meant to tell you both earlier, please thank your son for his military service from me and my family. His service and sacrifices are appreciated by more people then he will ever know. God bless you all. - Kevin Stapleton “May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of his hand.” (Irish Blessing)
