Well, just like they said he would, old man wind showed us he's still got a healthy set of lungs today as we left El Paso for the open range. Texas is dry and dusty at the moment, and we plowed through a dirt storm or two on our way to Ft. Hancock where we rest our heads tonight. Fortunately tomorrow is supposed to be less windy since we have a little climb in the first half of our ride and those are usually entertaining enough on their own. We'll letcha know how it goes.
A big thank you to today's sponsor Sarah Deworken. Sarah completed her first marathon last season with TNT, and she's one of those participants who managed to do it all and make it seem effortless. Sarah never complained, never said 'I can't,' and never stopped moving her legs until she crossed the finish line. I am very proud to have been part of her first marathon experience, and when I'm feeling the tiredness set in during our next long climb, I'll think of you Sarah and keep my mouth closed and legs moving. Hope everyone is having a great weekend, more from Texas soon!

After living in Wyoming for 34 years I sure have enjoyed the lack of wind in Phoenix. People here are like "I can't believe how windy it is" and I just smile.
