Day 22

Start: Kansas City, MO
End: Topeka, KS
Distance today: 74.3
Total: 1609.4

Goodbye Missouri! Hello Kansas!

First impressions: eastern Kansas has a lot more hills than one might expect... It's deceptive, because the roads are still all pretty much completely straight. In the eastern part of the country, straight roads are flat roads... Here, the make them straight regardless of the hills.

Anyways, it was a pretty nice day from Kansas City. Had a nice breakfast at the only Vietnamese restaurant in Kansas City... We were forced to ride on the interstate for a bit to get into Kansas, since the road we wanted to take was under construction.

I had a delicious Elk burger for lunch in Lawrence, KS. How many of you have ever had elk before? We also took a brief stop in Lawrence to take a picture with a fan, Ted (if you're reading this Ted, we won't forget the post card!)

Staying with a friend of Michele's in Topeka, where we will be taking the day off tomorrow to relax and rest up!
