Indiana: Crossroads of America

We were back on the bike again after a day off. We enjoyed the day off with doing some necessary jobs such as our laundry, washing the bike but mostly relaxing with naps and reading.
We were supposed to decorate our helmets to add some interest to the trip. You can see that some persons went all out. Ours was a bit more understated, combining themes from "Driving Miss Daisy" and "Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer true."







Today was another beautiful day for biking. We would have to rate it a #10. We had sunny skies with light headwinds and mostly lightly traveled country roads. We left Illinois and entered Indiana and the Eastern Time Zone. Yeah! Our route to Crawfordsville today was 81 miles and average speed was 15.4 mph.
A street scene in Hillsboro, Indiana. This is a nice way to retire old bicycles!
Again, we appreciate your support with your comments and emails. It really does feel that we are getting closer to home!

    Love to hear about your journey!
