Okay, what song is that from, and who sang it? One of my favorites, and one I can't get off my mind the last few days of this incredible 3 week adventure across America.
Today was very windy, even for the Badlands. I can't even imagine how much worse it would have been had we decided to ride I-90 across South Dakota. Today was my turn to lead the ride. We usually ride open roads about 5-7mph over the speed limit; but today was an exception. I had to keep the speed down to the speed limit, or even less, because the winds were blowing us all over that two lane road. A straight cross-wind, from our right side. In the rare occasions where there was a curve in the road, it became even more challenging, anticipating the wind shift from our right side to head on, and vice-versa. But, we made it to Sioux City, Iowa in good shape, got some Mexican food for supper, and we're now finally relaxing. We plan an early start in the morning, with Peoria being our target destination for our last night away from home.
I don't know if it's bad luck to mention this....but in this three weeks of riding all over the country, we have not had to don our rain gear even once... Knock on wood.... 2 more days of riding... Could this be some kind of record, if we make it back to Cincy without ever having to put on the wet weather gear??? Holy Crap!!
Simon and Garfunkel, Can't remember the song title, but it was from their Bookends album. I use to know the whole thing.
ReplyDeleteMichigan seems like a dream to me now.....Mahach use sing that.(well croak it anyway.)
And "all gone to look for America" is certainly appropriate.
