| Ride Description: Day 5 of my second and last Tour de Nebraska! Wilber to Syracuse. Can you say hills? Can you say wind? Yes, Virginia, these were long and fairly steep hills. They just didn't quit. It helped a little bit that it was so foggy we couldn't see too much of the road in front of us. Drivers on this day really ticked me off...I even had to hold my arm out for one pickup not to pass me going up a hill because there was a car coming the opposite direction. Morons!!! Getting into Syracuse we still had to climb a few steep hills...was so nice to get to the high school. This was a great tour, hard work, but I felt strong and am glad I did it. Won't do it again because I don't like to relinquish so much control. |
