Good intentions....I headed for Bellville and about a 110 mile ride this morning, but I should take the weather forecast a little more seriously. The first 10 miles was nice, calm and about 70. But then, I headed out onto highway 1488 and made that left turn into the SE wind. It blew about 20mph, with gusts around 25 to 30 for the next 40 miles. Still, the ride went well but I stopped at Hempstead after 50 miles. My left knee was a little sore and I'll tell you, having a semi-truck pass you and add their wind to the other wind, that's tough.

Vicky and Jessica picked me up after 50 and I had planned to ride another 50 home but we spent too much time in Bellville and it was just too late. I'll probably ride 20 or so tomorrow just to keep my knee loose.
