Ride to Elizabethtown, Ky

001: In preparation for a muggy ride, Luke picks his earwax, AJ is digging for gold, and Bill hops with glee.

 

 

 



 
 

Bill demonstrates to Luke how to effectively complete a hiney scratch with the bicycle seat and Luke gives it a try. They both highly recommend that cyclists use this method although it takes a lack of modesty to do it correctly.



 

 

 

 

 


 

Although AJ’s butt has been buttered sufficiently (and Joe called her a biscuit), she is only recently becoming accustomed to being on a saddle again. She is also quite tickled that she hasn’t bit the dust for over a week. Small victories!

 

 

 

 

AJ rides dangerously close to the “no spit zone” that always trails behind Luke. Bill, having a bit more experience with spit spatter, rides south and west behind him.

 

 

 


 
 

Joe, jealous because AJ was having soooooo much fun on the bike, tries to run her off the road in the hopes of tackling some down hill runs (if they exist) in Kentucky.

 

 

 



 

After one pooped princess decided to call it a day, Luke and Bill carry on pushing up the long, steep hills that Joe claims are an optical illusion.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

 

007: Bill and Luke are smiling only because Joe rides along side them blasting Dueling Banjos which is a crowd favorite at any church in Kentucky.

 

 

 

 

 

 



 

Since Bill didn’t carry a water bottle on his bike today, AJ tried to keep him hydrated by shooting a stream of liquid from a water gun into his open mouth.

 

 

 


 


 

Joe is so delighted that he got to wear his favorite spandex AND ride his bike today that he Flaminco dances in the truck.

 

 

 

 

 

 



 


 

Bill is showing us the number of teeth (whoops, tooth) that he has.

 

 

 

 

 

 



 
 

Joe smiles as he commences his ride. As he rode, he decided to ride until the cornfields stopped appearing. After he rode 492 miles, he wasn’t smiling so much.

 

 

 

 


 


Bill teaches Joe Kentucky’s favorite sport, hog-tying. They both practice on Luke who volunteered when he thought it meant that he’d get pork for lunch/dinner.
