    Don't give up just yet!

    Interestingly, I have found that people at tours bond over bad weather. People now have something in common that they "survived" and get much friendlier... (and then they talk about it every subsequent year: "remember in 1994 when there was that super big storm and the mayor or SmallTown opened up the school gymnasium and everybody's clothing was hanging everywhere...?")

    Anyway, good for you for trying. Maybe you'll have more luck next time, if you muster the motivation to do it again!

    Grog, That so makes me think . . . climbing Cabbage Hill in '08 in the pouring rain and using the rest area restroom to get warm with everybody drying their clothes with the hand dryer!


    Tri Girl, Don't you even give up on touring! Just try it again with DH and or friends. It really is fun. You make the plans and plan your tour the way YOU want. You can never go wrong with a local overnighter. No matter how bad the weather may get your never too far from home and a warm bed. Chalk this one up as a lesson learned and go from there. bikerHen

    Edited to add . . . Did the wind beat up that stop sign? Or was it something more solid.
