Big Ride - Day 24 - Miller, SD to De Smet, SD

Good sleep on the high school stage.

small breakfast

chasing down towns to find a cafe/restaurant for food

Construction zones and muddy roads

Found it in town #2, bacon cheeseburger and waffle fries + bonus: the Tour was on!

Continued on riding with Rachel and Doug. Met up with Ed, Austin, and Noah at lunch stop and half way point.

Booze Fairy story: Leaving 350 bucks in the cab of a truck and the Booze Fairy will leave you a 6 pack and a hangover in the morning.

Half way across the country!

Strong headwinds coming into camp. Saw Chad's bro and dad heading out to see him.

Took a nap upon arrival. Going to be an early night I think.
