I apologize for the sketchy posts covering the last week of riding. As the week wore on, our longest riding week of the event, I found it difficult to stay on top of my journal. 654 miles of cycling and several nights of poor sleep only contributed to my growing fatigue. In fact, at our Coal City camp, I seriously wondered how I was going to continue on the following day – very uncharacteristic of me!
Much of the riding from near Madison to Valparaiso blurred into a boring sameness; fields of corn and soy beans and just to mix it up a bit, fields of soy beans and corn!

Hi Jim!
I love reading your blog and hearing of your adventures. I am in awe of your fortitude and perseverance. What stories you will have for your students this year. Good luck for a safe finish to your ride!

In less than four days you be in Burton Ohio(where I don't know) and you will hate Ohio roads(They Suck)
Keep going Jim! Your trip is a inspiration to all of us!
