Biking Across Kansas 2002 had a great start today. The weather was clear and hot (upper 90's), but we had gusty tail and side winds pushing us along to our destination in Colby.

All three routes are together today and we enjoyed hospitality from the great folks in Goodland and the CYO group in Brewster (who prepared us a lunch in the park).

Despite a stretch of loose gravel on the road, riders had it good, and most had an easy time finishing the 55 or so miles into Colby. There were some sore muscles and flat tires, but everyone was in good spirits upon arriving in Colby.

We had our first nightly meeting this evening with all three routes participating.

Tomorrow the three routes split and go their separate ways until Friday when we'll reunite in Holton. B route heads for Norton, A route to Lenora and K to Hill City.
