We are staying in the cafeteria of the middle school in Decatur- which reminds me a lot of High School Musical. I'm hoping for a good night's sleep because we have 92 miles to go tomorrow with rumors of it hitting over 100 degrees.

Decatur, TX
We We rode in to Decatur with an 88 miler and were definitely sad to leave Dallas. We wanted to get on the road early so we had to be up by 4 with our bags packed and out to the trailer by 4:30 in order to avoid the heat. The ride was tough with lots of rolling hills and temperatures reaching into the high 90s. We had two lunch stops and countless water fill ups along the way. I rode with friends Sarah and Jenna and we arrived to the host with Icees in hand at around 3:30. It was a long day and I feel pretty under the weather both physically and mentally. Headwinds, rolling hills, bad road conditions and now the addition of Texas heat has definitely gotten to me a bit.
