We started earlier today….about 6:45 and were able to ride in cooler temps for an extra hour. We rode today in some stronger breezes most of the morning. I say stronger breezes because the afternoon became windy, and hilly. Those two always seem to go together when I’m on the bike. Add in some good heat and you have a perfect storm to take Shane out early. I road 94 miles today. Kyle ended up finishing solo and he did it like a champion.
Road Kill: 2 critters plus a opossum that wasn’t quite dead yet when we rode by. We thought he was out but then he lifted his head, with those pitiful eyes and whispered, “Help Me.” Then just that quick he was gone.
Well, it is 8pm here and I have been fighting to stay awake for two hours. I think it is time for bed.
Thanks for your support and prayers. Two more days and then our first rest day. Mom flies out on Wednesday morning and she will be missed. There is just something about having your Mom around that makes the pain hurt a little less.
Meals: Breakfast – Eggs, bacon and toast. Lunch – Hot ham and cheese and Jell-o salad. Dinner – Fried chicken, potatoes, gravy and lettuce salad.
