Over half way to Neosho

We are currently over half way to Neosho (actually we are about 50 miles out). We have also passed Minnesota and we are back in the lead.

Go fast, Go smooth, Go BLUE!

Great, great, great! Back in first. I love it.

50 mi. from Neosho means 133 miles in about 4 hours, 19 minutes. Just about 31 mph. Day one average of about 38 mph for 285 miles. In 2005, Michigan's Momentum averaged 46.2 mph for the entire race. This race should speed up in the next few days.

An easy run to Neosho tomorrow, then a stage stop, rest, recharge, wait for the other teams, then restart in first place Tuesday morning.

I've got to share a story with you from FH Bochum's blog. They went to Arlington, Texas to practice caravan procedures on real roads. Nice, quiet town, Arlington, with good paved roads and very little traffic. Things went well for a while. Then the police showed up. The Germans were a little worried, but it turned out the officer just wanted his picture taken with their car. Pretty soon, the rest of Arlington's police force showed up with their cameras, and finally, the mayor. Is that cool, or what?
