We were awake by 4:45am so we packed up and rode about one mile to McDonald's for breakfast. After hot drinks and a sauage mcmuffin we headed for Chadron at 5:30am. We rode this segment in our 2009 trike trip but then the weather was not good. The conditions on that ride were snow, cold and lots of headwinds so hopefully we will be able to enjoy the ride this time. At about 10:30am we pulled off the road and had a tuna and cracker lunch from our food bin. Back on the road to Pine Ridge where we made a photo stop. From here it was mostly a twelve mile downhill to Chadron. We saw pheasant and antelope both in the fields and along the road. What a great 55 mile ride today. Once in town we aired up all our tires and went to Wal-Mart for supplies. It was about one mile to the campground and a nice shower and a grassy campsite. The west wind dried our clothes in no time. Off to Taco John's for a beef taco salad, we needed some greens. We read outside until dark for the first time in a long time. Good night all.
