We had a nice short 65-mile ride into St. Louis. The county police escorted us for 19 miles to the city limits and then the city police took over and brought us to a huge park where we had lunch. I got to see Tracey today for the first time in 2 months so that was pretty exciting! We had lunch and then arrived right in front of the Arc in Kaiser Plaza. Right before stage up I checked my tires and one was completely flat. I had to change the tire quick only to find that the other tube had a hole. So I had to change 2 tubes in less than 10 minutes just to be able to ride in. At the arrival we had 2 proclamations presented to us. The city declared July 24th 2009 Push America day in St. Louis! We had an amazing dinner at a local alumnus’ house and they treated us like kings. We had more homemade food than we could handle!
