Lake Scott State Park

Lake Scott is the closest park to Scott City, Kansas.  It looked like a great place to ride our new bikes and maybe hike a bit.

The small canyon now has a dam to maintain a lake but long ago this was a popular place for native tribes to visit. One of the tribes was the Taos Indians.  That is a long walk from New Mexico.

Time to walk back to the truck and get out the bikes.  Our plan is to ride to the dam and back.

I don't think we have posted any pictures of our new bikes.  They are electric assist and fold up.  When folded they will fit in the back seat area of the truck.

Our ride was great and the lowest level of assist helped make hills no problem at all. The bikes will reach 20 mph on the highest assist level.  They have wide tires that help with dirt paths.

We did make it to the dam but not without an accident.

Shawna took a spill and scraped up her elbow. She insisted that she get back on to ride back.  One of those "Get back on the horse" events.

Time to bandage up and head back to the RV.
