The road gods showed no mercy today as the wind is a steady 26 mph out of the north and relatively cold as the temperature is 25 degrees lower than yesterday. Unmerciful winds and lack of sleep have just about beaten me. I really had a hard time getting out of bed and out on the bike. Returned to the parking lot I rode in yesterday and made myself ride ten miles.Doubt the miles had any fitness value and had zero entertainment value, but I am afraid if I miss one day I'll just quit for the rest of this job. It wouldn't really hurt if the job goes another three days, but really don't need the weight gain a week or two off the bike would get me if the job drags out. Wind forecast is better for tomorrow but high again for Wednesday. Long range plans now are to try to do a mountain century in Alabama next weekend at 102 miles and over 7000 feet of climbing. Odds don't look good but there still is a slight chance I can make it.
