Morning Ride with Greg W, GMR to East Fork rd to Crystal Lake and back over GMR, VERY COLD!!
This was probably one of the coldest rides I've ever been on. The wind blowing up to 40-50+ coming through East Fork Rd and the Temp 29, wind chill was a KILLER!!!! The head wind climbing up Hwy 39 all the way to Crystal Lake was unreal, very tough day to say the least, there so many times the little voice kept saying turnaround and go home and bag the ride. Was happy we made it to the store, Greg and I had a little chili to warm us up. Good old government shutdown had bathrooms closed, but the owner of the store was able to open one as along as he maintains it. Very cold on our decent my teeth and every joint in my body was feeling it. The 404's were not the best choice of wheels for today, with winds blowing me all over the place. Just glad I made it home and time for a warm shower and hot meal.
