Welcome to the road blog!

Still on the road.....

......still on the road, Longcross Construction jersey rode through the state of Missouri early this morning and over the Missouri river, beautiful photo's to load when we get back to the UK. Basebuild Services jersey rode through Illinois and over the Mississippi River bridge, earlier in the day I rode past a sign at the side of the road which read "Life is a Daring Adventure" which is true of RAAM and also certainly true of riding over the Mississippi River bridge, it's long, very long, very wide and with good fortune, a steady hand and a good tail wind the bike and rider made it to the other side, thank you Mississipi bridge traffic around 3 - 3.10pm. Tomorrow we ride through Indiana and onto Ohio, nearer to Washington for arrival on Friday.

Missouri was beautiful, rolling hills and quiet roads, similar to Essex, well North Essex maybe........
