Not easy to get to a computer, so here we go. Day two the wind was bad. we came off the Pleasure Island Bridge and could only get up to about 14 mph on the way down the wind was so strong. The ride down the beach was tough. After lunch we turned mostly north and had the wind to our back that was great. Made it into Sulfur to finish day 2, 92 miles.
Day 3 Rained all night and when we woke up it was still raining,53, and a strong northwest wind. By the time we started it had stopped raining but the wind was still blowing. Did not warm up, we had lunch under a bridge. Day 3 was 106 miles. It is clear today. It is a short day today we only have 74 miles.
Well, the 77 mile day was suppose to be a cake walk, given the century plus yesterday. Overall it wasn’t bad, but still windy more so than I had hoped for. Bright side? Can’t say enough for the Red Cross Crew. These people are awesome and they deserve a lot of hand claps for their performance thus far. I must say though, I do miss my honey. She wasn’t able to be with me because she has to teach her little angels back home. This is a must for me next year. If you are thinking about this venture for next year, give it a go. It is a blast!
