Day 5 in the Books



We left Sioux falls this morning at 7am. We had 460 miles to ride. Iowa has a lot of corn, that's why there are no more pictures today because it would be just corn! We picked up a few riders from the 2nd district there and Travis rejoined the group a couple hundred miles later. I rode up near the front today and it's amazing looking in my mirrors, bikes as far as I can see, two by two. I'll try to add someones pictures of that soon.
We road into Illinois and saw........corn, lots of corn. One picture at a gas stop doesn't do justice to the number of bikes there. A group from California and Arizona were there too!
When we arrived in Ottowa we rode to the Harley shop, a couple of blocks from our motel, where the union local had a great bbq waiting for us. The shop was literally surrounded by corn fields. This time we got steaks, beans, salads and drinks, but no corn!
Thanks again to the local union guys for a great reception.
Off to Akron Ohio tomorrow, another 425 miles and it might rain. At least we'll see corn. Later.
