Golden City, MO to Girard, KS, about 59 miles. Had an early breakfast at Cooky's in Golden City before hitting the road towards Kansas. All I can say about this part of the country is that there are a lot of corn and wheat farms and that it is very flat. Pittsburg was my first stop in Kansas, where I went to a bike shop for a few parts. I saw some people on an Adventure Cycling Association van assisted tour taking a rest day in Pittsburg. I only talked to Dave, who told me about their trip west. Ended the night at a Lutheran church about 11 miles outside of Girard. That leaves two milestones today, crossing into Kansas and completing Section 9 of the TransAmerica trail. Section 8 will end in Alexander, KS, which I will consider my halfway point.
