Day 13 - June 28 - Burrton, KS

I slept in since I was in a hotel. I was on highway 50 now, which apparently is used by a lot of cyclists which is nice because people along the way now seem to know what I'm doing. Up until now whenever would stop at a restaurant or someplace, I would get weird looks, but people are now asking me questions and talking about other cyclists they have seen pass through. It stormed a little the night before so it was a little humid in the morning. I ended up biking 86 miles though because there was no wind and it's so flat here. I stopped at a house in Burton and I never know what to expect when I knock on a door. When a guy answered the door he just said "we own all this up to the highway, it's all yours." He said it quickly and didn't ask any more questions which was weird. The next morning I talked to him and he said he has seen a lot of cyclists go through. He's talked to a few people about it too so he didn't ask a lot of questions.
