Day 11 Medora to Hebron

75 miles of beautiful, rolling hills with vast open views... as we read on a poster "North Dakota, life in the vast lane!"

We're able to continue on to Bismarck because we found a one-way rental car to drive back to Missoula.

So, no bike boxes, no buses! So much less fuss. Yeah, baby!

We're camping in a city park with pool where we can shower and clean up again. I think that makes 6 nights in city parks with pools.

There is a terrific fireworks display going on right now. It seems like one side of town is trying to out do the other side of town, and we're in the middle, enjoying it all.

Earlier today, we met a couple of cyclists who are riding across the country. One was from Lincoln, CA and the other from Maine. They started on June 1st from Oregon. Later, we met a couple from Washington, D.C. They are going to Santa Barbara and shipped all their stuff about three months ago. She's going to grad school and he's looking for a new job there.

Dickinson, ND is near the Bakken oil fields, so there were a lot more heavy trucks and equipment. It wasn't that nice sharing the road, but most gave us plenty of room and it didn't last long.

Tomorrow, onward to Bismarck!
