Just beautiful. The rolling mountains of the Ozarks were challenging, but we were prepared after the steep slopes of the Blue Ridge and Smoky Mountains.
Looking out over a beautiful vista with the mist of the rain covering the land:
The winding roads:
Day 34-35: Grove, OK; Bartlesville, OK + Missouri (58 miles; 79 miles)
We biked in three states, Arkansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma, all in one day! Because it was a shorter day and we all wanted to cross the state lines together, we biked as a big group for most of the day. It’s pretty insane that 58 miles is now a “short day” that allows us time to diddle-daddle! We’ve come a long way since being so pooped on our first day of 65 miles. Here are some pictures at the state lines:

The gals, showing off our hot bike short tan lines! woohoo! (and me, flying):
The guys:
Oklahoma state line:
The hospitality in Oklahoma so far has been wonderful. Last night we stayed with … And this evening and tomorrow, our day off, we are at the Church of Christ. Thank you for the food and good company!
