Day 2: Apache to Cordell


Distance: 70.74 miles
Time: 6:16:26 hours
Average: 11.2 MPH
Max: 30.0 MPH

Leaving Apache. That's the moon. The sun came up about 10 minutes later.
The only entry I have in my log is "Strong headwind most of the way." It was the most guelling day I have ever had on doing anything. There was a 20 mile stretch riding northbound with more uphill than down into NE wind of 15-20 MPH. I stayed in low gear for more than 2 hours. The last 8 miles were great with an east wind blowing us into Cordell.

After about two hours of recovery I was actually glad I had finished the day.
