My and many others first century ride happened riding between these two lovely states. The cue sheet said 97 miles, but as we known, always +/- 10 miles and don’t forget about wrong turns! A 12 mile detour and cue sheet leeway took us on a 118 mile journey. Rolling in at 8:30 pm, we had our first hose shower and a much needed dinner. Attitudes were positive the whole day.
Day 20- West Layfette, century #2
Happy birthday Kristie! Yet another century, and in the rain too! After arriving at the church with 99.2 miles... we circled the parking lot to make it one hundo.
Day 21- Gilman, IL 73 miles (an "easy" day)
Welcome to Illinois! Due to taking desolate back roads, there was no sign, so we did the next best thing.
Day 22- Pontiac
An adorable town with a cheap bars and high end thrift stores. Despite its cuteness, a majority of us decided to achieve a bigger adventure.
