Our first all-day rainy day.
We rode about a mile in a chilly rain to the church service we were lucky enough to find, then on to an excellent breakfast at Feed Bunk, rated RRR (Recommended by Rando Rob), then back to the motel to consider our options. In short, we didn't want to ride in the rain but didn't want to be stuck in a cheap motel all day. So we put on our rain pants and jackets and hit the road in a steady rain with the temperature in the low 60's. The chilly temperature was actually about ideal, since we didn't swelter in our rain gear.
Since we did almost 70 miles yesterday, today's trip was only 32 miles. We had a light headwind and the rain did not quit, but the trip was not arduous at all. At Chanute we quickly found a cheap but comfortable motel near the route, but the only food around was chain fast food. So we clogged our arteries and promised to eat healthier tomorrow.
