Greetings from Bettendorf, Iowa! The team is resting today in one of the Quad Cities--Davenport and Bettendorf are on the Iowa side of the Mississippi River, while Moline, East Moline, and Rock Island are on the Illinois side of the Mississippi River. Yesterday I arrived to our host's house amid 110 degree heat plus humidity--whenever we stopped at a red light I thought I was going to melt. Tomorrow we ride to Peru, Illinois, and the next day we ride to Lauren's family's house in a suburb of Chicago. We'll rest for two days there, which will be awesome because a) it's Chicago and b) we have to do back-to-back 100+ mile centuries to get there.
