"...Wall Drug..." [uncountable billboards]
The rain stopped. We found our way through Rapid City and onto the Great Plains, where we met our old friend the headwind as we approached Wall, SD, home of the infamous Wall Drug. After lunch we wound our way through the Badlands, of which you will find many pictures below. Mark Bazerman and I missed a key turn and ended up riding 114 miles total.
