yard and garden - mainly digging

Rode in to RAAM time station in Oxford, ended up hanging around for a couple hours and helped one crew fill the water tank of their rental RV. Then did a dusk ride back out the RAAM route past Mixerville, met Team Viking, then followed them back as far as the airport before breaking off for home.

Errands in Oxford.

Putting out controls for tonight's FAST-O.

rode in to RAAM Oxford time station to see Gerhard arrive, then errand in Oxford and return.

Rode out Brookville Rd / Oxford Pike to meet the lead 8 person RAAM team. They were flying!

On the road all day (5:15 AM TO 7:15 PM). Setting out road signage for Race Across AMerica from Greensburg IN to Chillicothe OH. A little walking and light lifting, but not really anything to count as training. Joined in welcoming the first riders as they arrived at Oxford time station that evening.

The day ended up taking longer than it should have, partly due to encountering a road closure for culvert replacement. Had to do a few extra miles checking the alternate route, then it took some time to contact RAAM HQ, get the re-route approved, and then backtrack to put up extra signage on the re-route.

Setting controls at The Grove for "Play in the Park" (summer day camp).

Picking up controls and chaining up the ball field gates at The Grove.
