Ken is kicking butt and taking names. Or whatever that phrase is.
So, after Ken looked at the routing options for the first leg, he made two plans: one more aggressive, and the other that gave him a turn-off to do a less strenuous route. I was pretty sure which one he would choose.
That agressive route? He’s already surpassed that and is on to more bonuses. (Or bonii, as I believe the slang is.)
He asked me to post, “I made my big daylight bonus dead at sunset.” He thought he’d have to wait ’til morning, or do his route in the opposite direction to not lose the nighttime hours, but no. Noooo… When he realized it was possible, he was pretty much at the exit off the freeway. Any delay, any hitch, and he would’ve missed it. Of course he got it.
He says the sunset and the moon tonight were breathtaking.
He’s planning a long ride through tonight and tomorrow, although he’ll stop to rest if need be. Also, there are a couple of bonuses that he can skip if he wants to get in to the checkpoint early.
When he arrives, he’ll check and doublecheck his paperwork, get scored, eat as much salad as he can find, and go to bed. If memory serves, they’ll get the second leg bonus information at 4 a.m. Thursday.
I’ll be flying across country tomorrow (Thursday) so my report will be later than usual.
