Fort Dodge to Iowa Falls, Iowa...57 miles


The overcast day made for some cool riding. Everyone was out of the barn early again so we had to wait around in the lobby of the Super 8 Motel for rooms to be cleaned --we watched the Tour. The joke is that Keith from Seattle, Washington, who hates the heat, gets into the next motel early enough to work their day shift.
There is a belief going around that they would have named this town Niagara Falls but the name was already taken. The falls of Iowa Falls are only five feet high-- no surprise this is Iowa after all.
Taking a picture got complicated today; do I want a picture of a corn field, soy bean field or farm buildings? The barn pictured isn't really a barn, it's a big corn crib.
