USA Coast to Coast stage 25 Chillicothe MO to Kirksville MO
120 KM, 1,327M climbed, 5 hours 10 minutes
Total 3,167KM, 19,247M climbed, 128 hours 53 minutes
Another hot day with the temperature touching 33C and very little wind.
We started the day with a 20 mile section on the hard shoulder of an interstate however this road was a lot quieter than previous interstates. After this the rest of the ride was on the US version of country roads but these roads had continuous rolling hill sections and we were told there were 148 hills in today’s ride.
Our second rest stop was in the large front garden of a friendly farmer and there was plenty of shade of which some of the riders took full advantage for a lie down (see picture).
We finished the day still in Missouri in the small town of Kirksville.
Another tiring days although thankfully not as bad as yesterday.
Tomorrow we cross the mighty Mississippi into Illinois.
