holy freakin crud

yesterday was some of the worst wind yet. Luckily nobody lives in this state or there might some other traffic on the road.

The winds were a constant 22-32 mph with gusts in the 40s. That would be great if it were a tailwind but as you might guess, that only happened for about 20 miles. Boy that was a nice 20 miles though.

I think the motorcycle gods are trying teach me a lesson. When I got back from riding my bike home from houston i mentioned that mcycle touring had no challenge to it like bcycle touring. I'd keep my mouth shut but i bet they can hear my thoughts too, being gods and all.

The rain gods have been consistently on my side though. Poured like a monkey last night but it seems to have let up out there. At least enough to fool us into getting on the bike.
