Lincoln was the ultimate destination of Day 4 on BAK, but not before that hellish wind blew us through both Paradise and the Garden of Eden! The old water tower in Paradise, KS and the bizarre art (and lunch on a theater stage) in Lucas provided the day's sightseeing.

I did not linger as a tourist too long at either site, trying to beat the heat and ride 68 miles, as shown at Garmin Connect or at Ride With GPS.
