So we switched our route a bit since we were so close to Oklahoma that we figured why not hit up another state! So yesterday we stayed in Altus, OK. In Altus there is a McDonalds that offered us free dinner last night (whatever we wanted) and breakfast this morning. Now, nomally I'm not a big McDonalds eater. I haven't had it in years. But, I was still excited about this. When else will I be able to fill myself with McDonalds and not worry about how bad it is for me since I'll be burning it off anyways!
So we definitely dominated McDonalds yesterday and this morning, and the workers there were so great at making sure we got what we needed. A big thank you to the owner there for being so supportive of our cause!
The ride today was from Altus, OK to Memphis, TX and it wasa the firs time that we've biked the mojority of the day in the rain. It's so weird because yesterday was blazing hot I got to actually get use out of my raincoat and arm and leg warmers. I did look a bit ridiculous, though. I guess I didn't get the memo that everyone else would be getting black arm and leg warmers. I had yellow ones. (and let's just say that every car saw me. safety first people.) It was tough riding in the rain. The morning was when it was really pouring and the rest of the day was on and off sprinkling, which wasn't as bad.
I have to say that as tough as days like this are (whether it be rain or wind or bad roads) it definitely makes normal days seem amazing. If we see the sun tomorrow (even if it is hot) I'm sure we'll all celebrate that it won't be raining and won't mind as much that it's blazing hot.
Tomorrow we're headed to Armadillo, where we'll have a day off the next day!! I'm really excited to sleep in on that day. Or maybe I just won't wake up at all on that day, which would be amazing. :)
