As I awoke this morning to the sound of rain on the roof (at least my bed and room were dry, many of my trip mates had water dripping not only in their rooms but on their beds)......... and wondered....will it ever stop...well the answer to the question is NO!! It rained all day, every inch and every mile....and wow..the dirt! The bike so so dirty, I was dirty, it all had to go in the washer when I got it. My rain gear did a great job, and I was toasty dry on top....with no rain pants, below the waist was a different story. Thanks to a gift from my sister at Christmas, my hands were toasty warm......
But, here is the really good news for the day.....we had a 22 mile flat stretch with a tail wind....wheeeeeeeeee........it was fun....if everyday could have the terain of today with no rain....that would be something. We are in the Imperial Valley of California very beautiful agricultural area, and yes, the agricultural aromas that go with it....we saw fields and fields of green stuff...(I was going to fast to see what it was) and then we came upon sheep!
Well, it feels good to be warm and dry........looking forward to a sunny day tomorrow, finally! Hope my shoes dry out!
