Buffalo Soldier...Day 14...Dodge City to Great Bend...Sat 07/05/11

Sorry for the delay in getting this load of nonsense out there but the hotel's wi-fi was a bit steam-driven and prone to er, not working. Nevermind...

First of many photo-ops today (well, yesterday now) on the way outta Dodge...


At our first stop in Kinsley, although I should add that it's not this trip's midway point...my arse and I both hope that that point is reached sooner rather than...


Buster Keaton lives on...


Into a paceline to battle the 3/4 headwinds. Tedious.


Second detour: Fort Larned...


Where Bob got his 'Buffalo Soldier' idea from...




A car on a pair of step-ladders? Why not.


Another detour to Pawnee Rock look-out. No, no films were made...


The view from the rock...


Where Ohio Bob is believed to have purchased his Cannondale...


It was doing all of 10 mph. Not unlike us, then.


We finished in Great Bend's famous ice cream parlour 'Braums'...recommended!


Almost forgot...THE NUMBERS!
