Day 21 we enter South Dakota

Today we rode 93 miles from Lusk, WY to Hot Springs, SD. Not much in the way of scenery or any major events on the road today. For the last part of the ride we had a tailwind which helped with 2 climbs at the 70 and 90 mile marks. Last night in Lusk they had a parade to celebrate Frontier Days. It was a little bizarre. It started out as expected with horses, covered wagons, etc. But then they ended the parade with a procession of muscle cars. Later that night they had the reenactment of the first scalping of a white man by a native American. A bunch of the riders went over to see the show and they said it was pretty entertaining. Tonight we had a first as we dined in a bowling alley. It was pretty strange seeing everyone sitting around the scorer's table eating their dinners. Tomorrow we are on to Mt. Rushmore. Everyone is hoping for good weather.
