The week has finally arrived. I am actually getting a little anxious about the upcoming ride. The other day when I had to drop off by bike for shipment to Whitefish, I actually experienced a little saddness. It was like leaving a friend to fend for their self. Now I am relegated to riding a 40 year old 10 speed (man is it heavy!) or my mountain bike. As I look outside now and the falling rain, it becomes questionable if I will get in another ride before flying out this coming Wednesday a.m.
I will let you know how the ride goes. There is a little concern about the forest fires out there and whether the smoke will affect our routes and length of ride.
