Day 25 – Fri/Jul 11 – Winamac IN to 25 Miles East of Decatur IN

Yesterday we entered Indiana and today we left Indiana. We traveled a total distance of 108.7 miles today stopping about 5 miles over the Ohio border. We traveled almost straight east today. Winds were out of the south/southwest at about 10 – 15 mph. The total climb today was 1,307 feet, 1-3% grade. We averaged 19.4 mph.

The weather and terrain were once again very favorable – flat with temperatures in the 80s. There are many more towns on our route now, we go through one almost every 10 miles. Between each town, homes line the roads. Larry has done a great job keeping us on very low traffic roads.

We now have 8 days left in our ride with just over 880 miles to go. We have traveled 2,582 miles over the past 25 days (including 1 rest day). If we can get through this weekend without rain, it looks good for the last week.
