Day 30 biking across the US. Illinois has been flat, quiet, and consistent. Overall great riding experience. We talked to a couple guys from Germany going east to west and they must’ve had 30 more pounds of gear than us. The weather wasn’t too hot and I think I handle the humidity pretty well. We just get super sweaty when we stop or have a tailwind.

    June 30th, 2023. Total mileage: 2550

    1. Trees don't grow around power lines. They're trimmed by the power company to prevent the tree limbs from touching wire and arcing, causing a fire and power outage

      It’s a $10,000 fine if the power co don’t trim them. I was a tree climber for 30y
