Ugggg. Wind you suck when you blow. I left work early, to ride until evening. Somewhere between the exit door and my car in the parking lot, I realized, and had a hard time saying, "I can't ride today"We actually had the state record wind gusts of up to 60 mph.
There will be downed trees all over the trail, and I had to throw that risk into the ride cancellation also.I kept thinking of a way to manage a ride but it wasn't going to happen.
Tomorrow I probably have to work late, so I will wait to Thursday to saddle up and pedal round.
This did give my knee a rest, it has flared up some and I took this opportunity to ice er down.
I so want to complete my goal of 100 dirt centuries. I need to get as many rides in before snow. Snow on the trail can make a 62 mile ride take longer then 10 hours.
Oh, congratulations to son Caleb. He attended Junior College graduated #1 in his welding class and has now been hired by John Deeres here in town.
So I now presented you Caleb morphed.
So ride a bike when you can, you never know when you can't
RideON,
DAve.

Way to go, Caleb!
You'll get 'em all in Dave.
I didn't think that anything would keep you off the bike! But that was a nasty wind.
Better safe and riding the next day!
I heard on the radio that the wind we had yesterday, if it had been over water, would have been a cat 3 hurricane!!!
crazy
I was wondering about the weather up there, must have been bad to keep DaveyGie down. Good for Caleb and that means good for Dad.
Wind Blows!
I'm not sure I could ride in 60 mph gusts either. Those 35 mph wind gusts in September were bad enough on me. Thursday should be better for you.
Yippee Caleb....good job son.
