56 Miles of Headwind

I rode to Angola on Sunday, the day after running the Mini.

It was 56 miles of headwind and pain. After running the race Saturday I felt pretty good. Not so on Sunday morning rolling out of bed to kick off the Mother's Day merriment. I don't know what it is - but after running hard I can't seem to walk down stairs.

Anyway - I got on several layers and started out to Angola where I would meet up with family. The winds were coming out of the North/West. My route was a straight line from Fort Wayne to Auburn, then through the small town of Waterloo, then on to Angola. The world was picture perfect for the ride.

There were a few remarkable spots along the way of just field and sky with only distance green tree lines separating the two.

Today is my rest day. My legs need it.
