Scott City, KS to Ness City, KS

Distance - 57.01 miles
Time - 3:59:48
Elevation Gain - 212 ft
Max Speed - 18.9 mph
Average Speed - 14.2 mph
Trip Total - 2243 miles

It was raining this morning at 5:00 AM so we slept another hour and a half in hopes that it would stop. It did, so we left around 7:30 AM in the sogginess.

 

Only made it 57 miles. 57 of the hardest miles  I have done so far. I'm having terrible luck with wind. I can't take advantage of the flat terrain, to gain miles and speed, because the wind is brutal. Legs and morale were both gone by Ness City so grabbed a chocolate peanut butter milkshake and called it a day.

 

Toured Fort Larned this afternoon to pass the time.
