July 22 – 74 mi from Sebree to Falls of the Rough, KY. 2842 logged miles. Really muggy today, that made the ride strenuous for me. BTW, I bought a tie-dyed T-shirt in Elizabethtown, Illinois, and it’s ugly and one of my riding shirts. The pastor’s wife last night at Sebree said transcontinental cyclists are highly motivated “movers and shakers”, honest, harbingers of new attitudes. There’s a gathering at our motel of Louisville Moose members, curious about me and Richard; I’ve found that if I go off-route even a couple of blocks, the people are curious and friendly…on route, they’ve seen lots of cyclists. Tomorrow we enter the Eastern Time Zone and plan to stay at Nancy Lincoln’s birthplace. Will be 97 with high humidity.
