Nearly every overpass on I-70 some were full like this one some with just one person but 99.9% of the overpasses had something. The most touching so far was in Goodland as we left early in the morning a veteran standing alone in his yard in his uniform saluting the column as it passed he had to be in his 70's or 80's very very serious about what he was doing made our eyes leak. Could not break out of the formation to go back if only we had known he was there would loved to have talked with him the nite before.

Coming into the park area in Junction City Kansas people lining the streets both sides of the street as we rode into the park area. Flags waving, people cheering loud enough to hear above the engine noise.

Waiting for fuel all 600 fueled in less than 45 minutes is quite a system. Highway pegs up, two side by side up to the pump a fuel crew member hands you the hose you fuel till it clicks off not topping off they take it back hand it to the next one you pay cash for what you got rounding up to the next dollar then move on works very well.

Leadership missed a turn we had to make a large figure 8 and get back on the right road lost about 45 minutes imagine making a wrong turn and leading 400 bikes the wrong way.
