Day 6, June 16

RAAM 2010 Day 6: 10 mi past Bloomington IN to past Oxford OH

After getting some rest in Bloomington all afternoon, we were back on the road at 10PM. The route would be fairly flat with some steep climbs sprinkled in. As we wandered through the small towns of Indiana we were very thankful for the GPS units on our bikes. Lots of fast turns and no streetlights to speak of.

We traveled the backroads of Indiana and into Ohio, crossing through cornfields and many tiny small wooded roads. Some of the roads were so dark we would need to slow down just to stay in the headlights of the follow vehicle as we twisted through the country.


We finished the night at 3AM, quickly found a clean gas station lot and I took a sun
shower...without sun. Yes, the water was cold, but definitely refreshing. Some yogurt, oatmeal, and a PBJ sandwich would get us up the road.
