While we slept, Ken and Jeremy and Greg and Brad have been busy. At 5:50 this morning, they hit Jefferson City, MO. TS32 is 1812 miles into the race. They're now pedaling toward TS 33 in Marthasville, MO (pictured above). Dan and Jeff are due on course as I type. As you can see, there are some steep climbs on this part of the course.
Today, they'll cross the Mississippi River, just after TS34.
Just got a text from Greg. He and Brad got a bonus 30 minute pull for the second shift in a row - the teams are riding so fast that it's difficult for the next shift to estimate where to meet them. Greg and Brad rode 120 miles during their shift today and transitioned to Dan and Jeff about fifteen miles shy of TS33 right around 8:30 pacific.
