DAY #1 (MONDAY)...THUMPERVILLE TO STOCKTON, MO...265 MILES

Sorry for not posting on Monday evening. I had no internet access.

Jack, Jim and I left Thumperville mid-morning on wet pavement. It took less than 60 miles before we found the source of this wet pavement. Over 200 miles later it was still raining, but we were still mostly dry. We figured out that rain gear was not designed for hours and hours of use without leaking somewhere, but overall it really wasn't bad. Out of all the Thumpercafe's we've ridden to, this is the first one that we've had ANY rain, so we were about due. One positive was that we had no bugs. We spent the night close to Stockton Lake in Missouri. Three words could pretty much describe our first day....WET....WET...WET. "And that's all I have to say about that"
Talk to you Tuesday night.
