Mike & Tod - Day 23

So after sleeping next to Ulysses S Grant's tomb, the boys woke refreshed and ready to roll.

Unfortunately, their loyal - or not so loyal - steeds felt otherwise.

And this weren't no sissy flat tire or spoke problem either.

They needed a fer real life bike shop.

And they found one!

So a big "shout out" to Scott Hanson and the gang at The Bike Shop.

So let's see how long these repairs last!

Maybe they can ride along with them, a'la La Tour de France.

So with the late start and non-standard office visit, only made 60 clicks yesterday.

And again, drew the short straw in the Inn department. So laid 'er out once more on the banks of the Mississippi.

But all in all, not a bad way to end the day...

Now I know what to bring you boys for Christmas. Real big boy bikes with solid core tires. Maybe a couple of "big wheels" will do the trick. Next trip see if you can get a bike tire company to sponsor you although I somehow thing that after this trip they wouldn't want to be associated. Hope you make it home in time for Christmas.
