Total so far: 1,277 miles (2,055 km)<br \/>\nToday went well all-together, though it was long.<br \/>\nI set the alarm for 6 am so that I could try to get an early start for all the miles I had today. When I was ready to head out from the motel, it occurred to me that it was still somewhat dark. That would be attributable to having entered the Central time zone yesterday. Now the sunrise is 7:45 am but the sunset is 8:31 pm. I way this is all good in that now I know I don&#8217;t need to get up so early and will have more hours in the day to ride, get clothes washed out for drying and generally have a more enjoyable time in the evening.<br \/>\nThankfully the horrible southwest winds left overnight. However when I started out it was only 39 degrees F. I tried to gut it out but had to stop to dig out my fleece gloves as my fingerless riding gloves were just not enough. It really never get all that warm today. I carried extra water and hardly drank half of it.
