It was a short ride for me today. I started the morning in full rain gear. It was pretty cool starting out this morning and stayed that way most the day. The wind was really strong today. Fortunately it was at my back most of the time. I noticed at one time I was going 21 mph and had no wind noise in my ears at all. Glad it was a tail wind.
Montana is beautiful to ride a bike through. Not many pictures today because of the rain.
I'm in Libby Montana tonight. Sleeping at the Caboose Hotel. It's awesome! I arrived in Libby around 2:30. It was still raining, so I opted to splurge and get a room. I rolled my bike in, laid down on the bed and woke up 3 hours later.
After a long, long shower and soak in the tub, I went to get groceries for tomorrow.
A man asked me if I had ridden in the storm yesterday? He said the winds were clocked at 75 miles an hour. No wonder I felt like Lieutenant Dan.
Tomorrow will be a long ride. The map I'm using says there are no services for 70 miles. I stocked up on supplies just in case I am stealth camping tomorrow night. It may be a couple of days before I post again.
Well I'm going to work on a leaking back tire then hit the sack.
The only picture I took today was of what are room looks like when a tired biker hits it with gear that needs drying.
Thank you for the comments and support you has been giving me. It means alot.
