Well, it wasn’t hot riding in the Brushy Mountains in NC this morning! But it was really foggy and soupy in spots. It was so foggy I missed the turn onto one of my roads.
Apparently they had a really bad storm last night. There was a rock slide that covered one lane on Balls Mill Rd. A tree had fallen across another road. Lots of sand and gravel had washed out in curves. The DOT was out cleaning up the roads.
Streams were running faster and muddier.
Only 42 miles but 4800’ of climbing.
Thinking it was going to be sunny, hot and humid like it’s been for weeks I wore a white jersey. The mud stains look like art work!
