Hey Martin!

I made it 40 miles to my rainy-day goal of Ottumwas today early, at around 12:30, whereupon it started to rain pretty good. Now I'm holed up at the Stardust hotel and restaurant, debating whether to try for the next town, 25 miles west on 34.

It was a good ride this morning - I seem to make tracks during rain-threatening, overcast weather. I don't know if its the coolness of the air or the inspiration of getting somewhere before the clouds break... Certainly today's unusual easterly wind helped a lot, too. Some clouds have an easterly lining!

Kurt, I think having a weather radio is a good idea!

John, I think of your "adverse weather cyclist" desire every time it rains. John, This Mud's for You!

Keepin' Truckin'!

Scot
