The heat finally broke and it was time for a ride so I did the Treloar to McKittrick stretch which is a 16 mile (32 RT) with no services except at each end. This is a beautiful time of year, tall green corn, soybean fields, wild flowers, sunflowers... Besides the flora I saw a huge hawk and many, many turtles in the creeks and rivers. The Missouri River was also beautiful to look at with a few recreational boaters having a great summer's day. Trail conditions varied from dry and well groomed to rough and damp. Several areas are still in need of repair from washouts (from recent storms I suspect). The porta potties at Treloar have not been serviced since early June and it shows (and smells) and the 7-Up machine at McKittrick does not work. I also forgot to put my front wheel in the truck when I left for home at Treloar. Fortunately, when I returned it was up against a tree and I was glad to see that I had not run it over. Thanks to whoever moved it.
