"Could you put your helmet back on, please, Mark?" [Deb Klein to Mark Bazerman, requesting that he cover his mohawk while David Blair took a picture with her camera]
Today was the last scheduled century of the trip, and turned out to be the longest ride in distance, but not the hardest (my average speed while actually pedalling was 18.9mph). We had generally favorable winds and generally good pavement (except for one stretch of I-30 which we had to use as a detour because a bridge was out on highway 224). Everyone finished the ride. We passed into Ohio and finally into the Eastern Time Zone.
One last Indiana shot:
We left Indiana for Ohio, with Mark showing off his haircut in this
shot but not the one on Deb's camera - note the zero
mile marker on top must be to help people from Indiana figure out that
this is the border (Mark Bazerman, Deb Klein, Mike Weston):

Our first sighting of grain (wheat, according to Neil who wrote me with
