Yesterday was cold, hilly - and diabolically windy once I reached the old, wonderfully flat, and nearly deserted farm highway that, along with the Missouri River, meanders through harvested fields and bluffs. Today will be much warmer, but equally hilly and even more wind to make my outbound trip a joy and my return a leg burner. Bring it on, Mother Nature!
The bike, by the way, is my Freschi Supreme Super Cromo, which has attained "Most Favored Bike" status in my riding stable.
