Very windy ride today. NNW to N the wind was from 8 miles an hour to 17 miles an hour, with gust ranging from 16 to 30 miles an hour. Yes this does make cycling very difficult and even on a slow steady ride it can wear you out. But it all depends which way your facing, if the wind is at your back, you all of a sudden become a super star, because now all of a sudden your going faster than you have ever before. Then you turn around and your like aww shit. And then their is the wind from the side, oh joy. It whips you from side to side. In the beginning if the wind was to strong it literally stops you in your tracks. So many time in the very beginning we would have to get off the bike and walk. Now it's hard, but we can ride in it. 6/ 11/2016 We did a 15 mile bike ride today and our average speed was a balmy 11 miles an hour, oh joy.
2/10/2016 We took a break.
