Just as yesterday was a short day with a nice tailwind, today is a long day with a headwind. I would have preferred the tailwind for the long ride. Everyday though we have to get up and deal with whatever comes our way. Most of us just take things as they come and just work to finish, wether its wind, cold, rain, not many showers, bad roads.

Today I rode with the Bonners, Steph, and Mark for the last half of the day. At the end of the ride we stopped for ice cream. I tasty treat to look forward to throughout the day.
