Marshalltown to Clinton IA, June 16

"...Five miles from Cedar Rapids my batteries got so weak that my motor began to miss and finally gave out. When I tried to pedal the clumsily repaired coaster brake it broke again and I had to walk into Cedar Rapids..."

Waypoint Today:  Wyman was following the railroad tracks on his way to Cedar Rapids.  That line runs through the Fairfax community, about 5 miles on the outskirts of  Cedar Rapids.
