Rode the buffalo

A lazy morning as we had only twelve miles to the Oreville campground. At 9am we left the motel and rode around Custer to take in the sites and wonder through the stores that were open that early. A slow climb for six miles to the Crazy Horse Memorial and then six downhill miles to the campground. We set up our tent and had lunch before riding the Mickelson Trail five slow miles to Hill City. I rode the wooden buffalo and we made plans for tomorrow's train ride. The trikes just stopped at Dairy Queen on the way out town so cones were the choice for today. I just hate when that happens. We took the highway back to camp as the trail was wet and spongy and uphill in our direction of travel. Today was a short riding day as we cranked out just 24 miles. We read our books and watched a large thunderstorm to our north all evening, but no rain here.
