Day 39 of my journey riding,
Started out a nice cool morning again but quickly warmed up again. Planned on heading out and riding 55 miles today.
Got to Midway Texas which is half way between Chicago and Santa Monica.  Officially half way done. A couple pictures included. Saw my first antelope today riding. I'm sure I will see alot more!
The time fell back another hour today so I'm 2 hrs behind now.
Made my 55 miles today and Temps got up to 86 while I was riding. In San Jon New Mexico for the night. Heading out to Tucumcari tomorrow on 22 miles. After that 60 miles of no services. Alot of tough terrain and wind from here on out. Hoping to get 30 miles a day if possible.
Calling it a day so,
Good night
God Bless

We loaded up and headed out for Tallahassee. Today was only a 20 mile ride. Weather was great slight wind in our face but nothing to hold us back.

They will fix my bike while I come home. They will have 12 days to get parts in and fixed. Should be no problem. Jerry Reynolds came to pick Trisha up and Trisha took us to lunch at Red Robin.  Had a great burger there. Came back to bike s
