hot

the terrain has eased up considerably since the mountains and now we are in rolling hills which we occasionally have to ram-jam over. both alex and i are now physically used to biking all day but the heat has become to be a factor. right now we are in a library in hodgenville, ky and the temperature is around 90 so we are gonna sit out the worst of the heat since we woke up at 6 this morning and have already ridden 45 miles. around 4 we will keep going another 20+ more miles. the dogs in kentucky are crazy. they are constantly sprinting after us growling but i have my bike pump close by in case i need to whack one. that hasn't happened yet but i've been pretty close. right as we entered kentucky i clocked a jack russel at 25 mph. last night a nice man from Gravel Switch, Ky let us sleep in his basement which included an amazing dinner, showers, laundry, and cookies and biscuits to take with us. alex also got some good footage for his documentary. well i am gonna go find something cold to eat. if you are one of my friends and have a special address at a summer camp or something, email that to me at dunlpb5@wfu.edu
