Went on a group ride on Sunday to Starved Rock in Illinois and OMG! Talk about windy. Cross winds were horrifying. One of the old timers told me that morning that wind doesn’t bother him at all, well, by the time we were out for an hour and stopped at a gas station he said he takes back what he said, he’d rather ride in the rain the wind was so bad. Well, I managed and my attitude is that any other windy day will be easy after that.
Also went on my first night ride home from cruise night on Friday and I was so glad that my old-timer friend lives in my area so we could ride home together. I would not have felt comfortable riding by myself that day. I’m gonna have to work on that I guess. It’s weird and dark and I was afraid of the cars. I’m gonna have to suck it up and just get over that.
