| Route: |
| Started in Hutchingson at the Cotters farm and started to ride on the Luce Line trail. Then we rode on some County rodes because the trail was unfinnished and not paved. |
| Notes: |
| What could go wrong… did go wrong. We didn't know that the trail was not finnished until we were in Hutchinson, and most of didn't know until we got to the part of the trail that was all grass. So we ended up getting off the trail there and going to a gas station and got a map. Only one person knew the way to get onto the rode that we were going to ride on so we started to follow them there and a few people got left behind at the gas station... oops! They ended up riding back to the Cotters farm and got a ride in a car to another city that was on the path. This meeting place was communicated to us through cell phones that were running out of juice because they weren't recharged the night before. Well, we got to the town, ate there, but never found them. We guessed that they went on the trail because they may have thought that they missed us. We looked for the trail and ended up on the other side of town of where it was. So, most of the group stayed on the county roads while 3 people went on the path just in case the others were on it with the plan of meeting in a town 10 miles away where the rode meets the path. The two groups stopped in town, but stopped to wait at different places. Once we got word from a biker that the others were somewhere else, Jamey went to go fetch them. When they came back, they just kept going because we weren't visible from the path at that time and we didn't know where they were and waited for a while. So, now we were in 3 different groups, two groups of four, and one group of 12. The group of 12 were the farthest from the end on the trail and decided to just go. Three of us (Kato, Michael Kempf, and I) from that group raced to catch up to the group of four that we were waiting for earlier. We could tell that unicyclists have been on the trail because of the sine-like waves that were left behind by the tires. It took a while, but we did eventually catch up to that group. Once we caught up, we rode a little farther and decided to call it quits because we had a ways left till we would reach the vehicles. We got off the trail and went to the intersection of 110 and 6 where thought we could be picked up from the vehicles. At a local gas station, we tried to call the people in the vehicles and they didn't pick up, then we called their home and Irenes dad came to pick us up, but didn't get there untill over an hour later. I ended up in that group. The other group that didn't make it back to the vehicles got feed and also a huge donation for MS from a local Inn.

| Comments from other unicyclists: |
| I heard "you're cheating" quite a bit from some of the other unicyclists as I flew by them. |
| Notes: |
| Nice, easy, short ride… started late, ended early (timewise). |

| Route: |
| Started at the Cotters and rode along the Mississippi river and under HiWay 694 (or was it 494 :), then we rode back through the sidestreets. |
| Notes: |
| 15 miles seemed like nothing! Maybe it was because of my new seat… I modified my old style Miyata to have some added comforort. It's a big ass seat too. I made a cover for the seat and it's made of fake fur, then I put in some neoprene, half inch of it, then I also put an inner tube in it and inflated to comfort. It's still not the perfect beast, but was a little better. |
