Day 19
Gillette to Newcastle - 76 miles
Today we passed within site of Devil's Tower. The area is covered with open pit coal mines and methane wells.
We had a train track beside us most of the day with 2 mile long trains every 10 mins. There was an 8 mile long construction zone again today, uk. I belive today was the flattest day so far but we did have 20 mph head winds.
We rode through some small towns and they look like you are back in the 40's. I don't think anything has changed in this area for years including the people.
Last night Amy, one of the twins, dislocated her shoulder on the water slide. She will be off of the bike for a few days.
One more day of riding tomorrow and then a rest day in Rapid City.
