Ride Description: Oh, my, this was a dastardly ride. I went west on Airport Road, against a west wind. Then to Cairo, still feeling the wind. Past Cairo and on to Dannebrog where I stopped at a little grocery store that time forgot. After that, headed on highway 58 to 281, and back into Grand Island. From Dannebrog, you guessed it...the wind beat me up brutally. And it wasn't even very windy! Had to stop more than normal and go into an easy gear in order to make it home. It was actually quite a nice ride except for the hurting part...and I will definitely do it again.
