 Wind Continues
Another warm sunny day but wind continues to blow hard out of the south. Legs still felt tender and so abandoned my planned ride and did the easiest course I can think of that still qualifies as a ride. Headed to Rock Stream again and capitalized on the tailwinds and minimized the headwind. Spun easily and mostly rubber necked while working on my tan. I always feel sad for the veal calves chained to their little houses on the climb south of Rock Stream. I suppose that the farmer needs to make money and usually think poorly of the people that buy the veal instead of the farmer. Some of the grass along side the road is actually starting to green. Only excitement today was riding through the dust storms the gusting winds were kicking up. Legs felt better after the ride so I guess it was a good though short day on the bike.
