Wednesday, Day 5 of Biking Across Kansas took us into the tiny town of Burden, "gateway to east central Cowley county". Aside from their sense of humor, Burden is a shining example of a small town that goes all-out for BAK. Seemingly everyone in town was involved, with many options for food, drink and entertainment. Notably, the bar did not even exist two weeks prior!
