Tuesday marked exactly one month since this tour began. Also, it ended up being our longest day in terms of time and miles ridden. Without getting into great detail, we had some interesting events. One of the guys who had not yet had a flat tire got one today. We were kicked off state route 29. (This was OK with me, as it was very busy, and we rode lesser-used roads.) The down side of this was we had more hills and more turns. At one point, we had a thunder and lightning storm. A group of four of us sought shelter on a porch. There was a nice rainbow afterwards! A TV station contacted us and did some filming. We never saw what aired, as we were out too late and did not have access to TV anyway. The last part of the 114-mile journey was the steepest uphill we have had all tour! Nothing in the Rockies or Cascades compared to it! At the top was the Highlands Community Church of Wausau, Wisconsin. The Y2K in the title? That is because we went over 2,000 miles for the tour today, as well!
