Again, due to the continuing warm reception from everyone I met, decided to continue as part of the BAK event as it travelled east along State 96 before turning north on Highway 183. At La Crosse I called in at the library and propped my bike against the cycle rack outside. This rack has just recently been sited there in memory of a couple, whose daughter was by chance in the library having travelled some considerable distance to see and photograph the new rack in-situ and by chance I happen to pass by just at the same time and make use of it. So I was happy to oblige and pose with bike for a couple of photographs. There is an alzheimer connection in that the lady's father had a diagnosis. It was then on to the overnight stop at Hoisington and more bicycle talk with loads of other enthusiasts.
