We had a beautiful ride today next to the Mississippi River. It was hot and fast and we made it 68 miles to our destination in Lansing, IA. This part of Iowa is not at all what I had expected. It is exceptionally hilly with steep bluffs. Furthermore, all of the trees are completely covered in ivy. It's very jungley. Tomorrow we have a hilly ride to Elkader. Hopefully the winds stay down so we can have another quick day of riding.
Gotta love the midwest friendliness on the Iowa welcome sign! We are now headed to Denali then on to Fairbanks....I can so see why you chose to live in Alaska Jayne!
