Day 37 Lincoln, NE to Omaha, NE Sonic Shakes:)

Today we got to sleep in a little and had a 6:30am wake up. We had our breakfast and headed out from our lodging which was the St. Paul United Methodist Church.  I rode with Colin and Sanjeev today and we had a shorter trek to our destination.

We had some nice scary city riding to start out with as we left Lincoln and then we got into the country for a while which was flat for a bit but then we started to hit some hills and towards the end we got into some hilly city riding which made things really interesting. Sanjeev got two flat tires which slowed us down a little but we made it to the stageup for our arrival.

We met at a parking lot and a random sponsor stopped by and brought their kids and we played duck duck goose for a little bit while we waited for the police to get there for our escort to our arrival.  We then hopped in our double pacelines and rode to our arrival which was at Willis of NE and we met up with Nia and the Spina Bifida of Nebraska.  We said hello and then we showered and changed and had some lunch

We then performed "Kids on the Block" for the kids that were there and then had a carnival. It was a lot of fun they had games for the kids (and us) to play and gave out tickets and they could get prizes. After it was over we did our dance and then helped clean up and headed out to our lodging which was at the Westwood church in Omaha.  We setup our beds and got ready for our second friendship visit with the ARC of Omaha.  We arrived for dinner and dancing. They had a live band and so we ate and then danced with the clients and had a great time.

After the dance we all headed back to the church and I got all packed and prepared for the next day and then went out for some sonic with some of the people we met (cousins of the lady that setup todays lunch and carnival event)

Have a great night


Peace, Love, and Bands
