Summary of my adventures:
Wife told me she needed me to feed animals this morning, so I got a later start. Fog was thick for 1st 45min of the ride. It was like rain essentially. I had some tough guy wannabe cop get out of his truck on 26 and give me crap for passing him. Shortly after I decided to hike this trail on 260.
You can tell from this picture why that was a bad idea.
I was raining sweat. Then at my last fuel stop for the day I discovered I have a leaky fork seal. It’s hard to believe it took this long for one to leak. The bike is 14 years old and has 56.5k miles.
These issues had little effect on my day. I got 540 miles in and had a blast. The past 2 times I ran through SEO I took 550. Today I ran 676. I think I prefer 676.
