As we looked on into the musky morning sun we knew a long day was ahead of us. We were not sure if mark had broke his arm. Or when Gordon was going to walk a hill but we knew there would be two options. Either a long day or a short one. As the sun began to peek more and more out over the clouds the heat began to rise putting everyone in a slump of speed and sweat. But now with the count down to 7 all of them continued to bike strong on the hot country lanes of nowhere USA. There has been an increase on skill of the biker. Everyone has seemed to find their calling and their inner strength to bike strongly. But Mark and Charles still continue to slouch in the back. But what had continued to shock the group was Josh's big announcement to participate in the North Park Triathlon. But then again everyone even Josh had stopped in laughed as the day drew to a close everyone biked strongly to civilization. After the biking ended a glorious hotel had waitedfor the weary travelers with a pool and spa fully equipped in their grasps. But still the day rolls on for one another. With the same talk. Josh misses his wife, Nuwh wants shrimp, Dion needs more roadkill, or Wolf not talking at all. It all ends in the calm peace of sleep. Until the sound of Casey's knocking awakes them for the next day.
