Jack's Bicycle Tour Across America 2006

Kadoka to Pierre - 96 miles

 

Much better day today.  We went through a lot of small towns with 20 to maybe 50 people each.  There are still hills with a rolling road.  Nothing much special to look at today just hill after hill after hill....  The end of the day we rode into Pierre on the Miissouri River.  This is a large city and the capital of South Dakota.

 

We stayed in a park along the Missouri.  It was a great place and only one block away from all of the stores and restaurants.  Close is good after a long biking day.

 

We switched into the central time zone today.  That means sunrise will be about one hour later tomorrow.  Today is a "ten dollar day" which means they do not provide dinner and just turn us loose on the town.  A few of us went to a Chinese Restaurant.  I was having withdrawal symptoms since this is the first Chinese food since the beginning of the trip.
