We took the path of many hills,
We thought it would be fun.
But when we reached the halfway point,
We wished that we were done.
Down the hills we sure did fly,
Up the hills we sure did cry.
The temperature was ninety five
Our clothing not a part was dry.
We pedaled along in shade and sun,
Past parks and schools and those who run.
Finally we felt we weighed a ton,
Was it time to call nine-one-one?
So while Laurie rested in a shady spot,
Steve rode back up, the car he got.
With a blast of A/C,
We were no longer hot.
At the hotel we showered
And felt re-powered.
It was time to make tracks,
the check out hour.
Then a drive to St. Loius,
With a view of the arch.
We continued along,
Our six week march.
306 miles, 6 hours Nashville to St. Louis
Today we will be riding a path along the river starting at the arch. Fewer hills anticipated. Yesterday's hilly ride was in Nashville.
Regards,
Steve & Laurie
