Dodge City, KS

We had a short 50 mile day today into Dodge City. The heat wave we have had the past week has been incredible. It had been over 100 degrees each of the last 5 days on the bike and overnight lows of 75-80 degrees. We were stopped for about an hour on the road for construction and had to rack in the last 10 miles to make our friendship visit. We had an awesome friendship visit and lunch with Arrowhead West. I had the pleasure of playing bingo with Roger. He was a huge NFL fan so we had a great time talking about how the Colts were going to beat the Chiefs next season. That night we went to Old Dodge City, a replica 1870’s cowboy city. We toured the city, watched the gun show, had dinner, and enjoyed the old western show. After a day full of events its time to ‘get the hell outta Dodge’ and head to Pratt tomorrow on an 80 mile day.
