It’s recommended that bikers have gone more than 300 miles, with at least one 60-milc trip. The bike across Nebraska trip is 488 miles, making overnight stops in six towns — Gordon, Valentine, Ainsworth, O’Neill, Pierce and Oakland — before arriving in Omaha. But all three agreed that the benefits of the trip make the train ing worthwhile. Bicycling across Nebraska is a “complete vacation,” Dan said. Tim said he thinks the ride is an escape, a way to get away. Laudcn said he enjoys the trip because it readjusts one’s values before going back into the real world. “Your life is really reduced to survival,” Lauden said. “It s a good way to clear out your head.” All three said the 500 bikers share a sense of community during the trip. “It's like a bubble that’s mov ing across the slate,” Lauden said. Another special thing about the trip is the support given the bikers by the communities they travel through. Girl Scouts and booster clubs put up refreshment stands for the bikers and the whole town turns out to w atch the bikers as they pass through, they said. “For some small towns, this is a really big thing,” Dan said. “Everyone’s hospitable.” Lauden agreed. “They’re really supportive,” he said. “They knock themselves out for us, literally.” Lauden said another great thing about the trip was making friends. “It’s a great way to meet people,” he said. “I’ve made some life-long friends.” /Jfm Laudcn also said the trip is a great way to see the state. “I’ve seen more of Nebraska than probably people who have lived there their whole lives,” he said. The trip has also has its pitfalls, though. After an eight-hour ride, the bikers camp out in com munity’s football fields and often have to endure cold showers, Dan said. “The worst thing one can look forward to is a windy day,” Laudcn said. Dan’s wife Jennifer said on of the worst parts of the trip are the Andy Manhart/Daily Nebraskan “Norfolk Alps” — five miles of straight ups and downs. Dan said muscles also get sore from riding so long. Something unexpected about the trip is the other riders, the three said. Dan said he sees people rang ing from teenagers to 70-ycar-olds on the trip, and kids being pulled by trailers. “The most unexpected thing is the people that might be riding,” Laudcn said. “I wonder why they’re there.” But all three agreed that the trip is personally rewarding. “It’s a blast,” Laudcn said.
