There is something about getting older. I can still ride well but I'm not willing to suffer too much. Today, Saturday, I rode 71 miles and crossed a pass but the last 40 miles were ridden directly into a 15-25 mph headwind. I was peddling as hard as I could and only going about 7'mph. Plus, it was in the 90's. As soon as I got to Omak, I found a roadway inn with air conditioning and a washer and dryer so I could clean my stinky riding togs. Now I'm relaxing and planning tomorrows ride. It's all good I have covered over 400 beautiful miles and am still on schedule. Looking forward to a good night's sleep.
